Foals begin preparations for game in Bremen
On Wednesday morning, the Foals began their preparations for the upcoming away game at SV Werder Bremen (Saturday 4th May, 15:30 CEST) with a public training session.
Marcus Thuram was an unused substitute as France reached the last four of the World Cup with a 2-1 win over England in the quarter final.
Aurélien Tchouaméni scored the only goal of the first half in the 17th minute to give his side a half-time lead. Harry Kane equalised from the penalty spot (54’), before Olivier Giroud restored the French advantage (78’). Kane had a chance to level the scores with another penalty in the 84th minute but put his effort over the bar.

France will play Morocco in the semi final on Wednesday at 20:00 CET.
