Manchester United now have another French international on their books. Wonder if they had to pay a bonus add-on for that?
Anthony Martial made his France debut last night as Didier Deschamps' men defeated Portugal 1-0. Martial, who cost United an initial outlay for £36m, came on for Karim Benzema in the closing stages. He featured prominently on the left wing during his cameo but also led the line and played through the middle. https://youtu.be/-6Xj2QRSMCg Martial showed his willingness to chase back but not all of his passes were finding their intended Frenchmen. https://youtu.be/iXJYVznVuEI It was left to Lyon playmaker Mathieu Valbuena, who also started on the bench, to settle the tie. In the 85th minute, he curled in a superb tie to down the Portuguese and win the friendly encounter. https://youtu.be/o4afGeK8w1MExplore more on these topics:
