The main focus for Milan during the international break has been the future of Giroud, who seems set to leave the club on a free transfer for Los Angeles FC.
He was one of the French scorers in Tuesday’s 3-2 win against Chile, in which Hernandez grabbed an assist for Paris Saint-Germain’s Randal Kolo Muani. France’s first match was a 2-0 loss at home against Germany in which none of Hernandez, Giroud or Maignan started.
It was a mixed break for Jovic’s Serbia as they were beaten 4-0 by Russia, but then beat Cyprus 1-0. Jovic did not find the back of the net in that game.
Things were more successful for Reijnders, who scored a great goal in the Netherlands’ 4-0 win over Scotland. He also started the match away at Germany but that ended 2-1 to the home team.
