Marseille duo Adrien Rabiot and Ismaël Bennacer fit to return
Adrien Rabiot (29) and Ismaël Bennacer (27) are both set to make their returns when Olympique de Marseille face Stade de Reims on Saturday.
Rabiot played in Le Classique against Paris Saint-Germain before the international break before joining up with the France squad. The midfielder played in Les Bleus' first game against Croatia in the UEFA Nations League in Split, which ended in a 2-0 defeat, however, he missed the return leg with a minor calf injury. However, Rabiot will be fit to feature this weekend.
Hojbjerg remains sidelined for Marseille
Bennacer, meanwhile, missed the match against PSG due to a hamstring injury. In order to prevent any aggravation of the injury, he turned down his call-up to the Algerian national team for the recent international break. L'Équipe reports that it is very likely that he will feature for Marseille against Les Stadistes. However, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Michael Murillo both remain sidelined for Les Phocéens.

(Marijan Murat/dpa via AP) MUNICH (AP) — Kylian Mbappé led France to Nations League consolation before Spain and Portugal play the final on Sunday. The Real Madrid star scored one goal and set up the other as France defeated host nation Germany 2-0 in the third-place decider. Advertisement Aurélien Tchouaméni set up club teammate Mbappé to score just before the break after Germany had dominated the first half, and Mbappé set up substitute Michael Olise to seal the result in the 84th after a much-improved second-half performance from the visitors. France coach Didier Deschamps had made his lack of enthusiasm for the game clear the day before, noting his team had little to gain from playing it, and it was apparent which side was more motivated in front of the Stuttgart fans. Germany missed a host of chances then had Deniz Undav's equalizer ruled out for a foul by Niclas Füllkrug in the buildup. France was without injured Paris Saint-Germain star Ousmane Dembélé. Both sides were forced to play for the consolation prize after losing their semifinals. Germany lost 2-1 to Portugal on Wednesday before France lost 5-4 to European champion Spain on Thursday. Spain was playing Portugal later in Munich. ___ AP soccer:

😵 More VAR drama: Germany unlucky against France again
Even in the second half, the DFB team is still lacking luck in the offense. Once again, it's the referee and VAR who have something against a German goal. After he had already taken back a penalty in the first half and instead rated it as a dive by Karim Adeyemi, it now hit Niclas Füllkrug. He went into a robust duel with Adrien Rabiot in the 53rd minute and passed the ball on to Deniz Undav, who remained ice-cold in front of the goal and pushed in for the supposed equalizer. But after VAR review, referee Ivan Kruzliak rated Füllkrug's tackle as a foul and took back the goal. Advertisement What do you think of the actions? Was Füllkrug's duel really a foul? Should the referee have blown the whistle immediately? Let us know in the comments! This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
