France

Fédération Française de Football
Founded: 1919
Federation: UEFA
- Les Bleus played their first international game against Belgium in a 3-3 draw in Brussels in 1904.
Their early record was hardly inspiring; during the Olympics Games in London 1908 they lost 17-1 to Denmark; and they shipped 21 goals in the first six meetings with England in the 1920s.
They lifted their first trophy: Euro '84 on home soil beating Spain 2-0 in the final. They bettered that when they took the double crown of World Cup winners in 1998 and European Champions in 2000.
Despite England's early dominance, France are catching up having registered five wins this century. They have met thrice in World Cup finals (1966, 1982 and 2022) the first two results were England victories in the group stages and the third a France win the the quarter-finals. They have also met three times in European Championships (1992, 2004 and 2012) resulting in two draws and a French win.
