📸 WZE, Tolisso, Badé... Twitter questions Deschamps' selections
This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇫🇷 here. Did Warren Zaïre-Emery really deserve to be called up at the expense of Corentin Tolisso? Orphaned by William Saliba and Dayot Upamecano, will the revamped French defense hold up against the Spanish onslaught? So many questions are stirring up on social media following the announcement of Didier Deschamps' list for the final round of the Nations League. Review of tweets.

Lyon and Strasbourg win to close in on Europe, Montpellier relegated from Ligue 1
LYON: Lyon and Strasbourg both recorded comfortable wins in Ligue 1 on Saturday to remain neck-to-neck in the race for Champions League football next season, while Le Havre held Monaco to a stalemate that condemned Montpellier to relegation. Malick Fofana, Corentin Tolisso, Alexandre Lacazette and Georges Mikautadze were all on target as Lyon cruised past Rennes 4-1. The pick of the goals came on eight minutes when Fofana cut in from the left and unleased fierce right-footed strike in off the crossbar. Tolisso swept a fine second home to double Lyon's lead on 25 minutes, before Lacazette effectively wrapped up the points six minutes before half-time with a hammered finish. Mohamed Meite gave 10th-placed Rennes a lifeline when he was gifted the chance to bundle home following a badly miss-hit crossfield pass on 51 minutes. Mikautadze restored the home team's three-goal buffer inside the final 15 minutes as Lyon moved to fourth and within one point of potential direct qualification for Europe's elite club competition. Liam Rosenior's vibrant young Strasbourg side kept their European dreams alive with a 3-1 win over struggling Saint-Etienne. They sit sixth, level on 54 points with Lyon. Second-half goals by Emanuel Emegha and Dilane Bakwa sealed the win after Zuriko Davitashvili had cancelled out Diego Moreira's early opener for the hosts. Englishman Rosenior announced in his post-match press conference that he had extended his contract with Strasbourg until 2028 following a fine debut season at the club. Bottom-of-the-table Montpellier, who play Sunday, were condemned to Ligue 2 after 16th-placed Le Havre held second-placed Monaco to a 1-1 draw. Ahmed Hassan gave the relegation-battling hosts the lead in the 22nd minute before Mika Biereth levelled for Monaco just after the hour. With four matches remaining in the campaign, Montpellier trail Le Havre, who occupy the relegation play-off spot, by 13 points. In a miserable campaign, the 2012 Ligue 1 champions have picked up just 15 points from their 30 games. The draw moved Monaco to 55 points and second in the table. On Sunday, Marseille can reclaim second place when they host Brest, while seventh-placed Lille can leapfrog all the clubs in European spots when they visit Angers in the first match of the day.

Monaco drop points, Champions League race rivals close
Monaco have dropped points in the race to qualify directly for next season's Champions League after drawing at Ligue 1 strugglers Le Havre 1-1. Monaco moved above Marseille and into second place on goal difference, but direct rivals Lyon in fourth, Nice in fifth and sixth-placed Strasbourg all won on Saturday to move one point behind Monaco with three matches left. The top three qualify automatically and the team finishing fourth enter qualifying. Marseille need to beat mid-table Brest on Sunday to reclaim second spot. Lyon blew Rennes apart in the first half on the way to a 4-1 win. Lyon completes two months undefeated at home 🦁🏠 — Ligue 1 English (@Ligue1_ENG) April 26, 2025 Belgium forward Malick Fofana scored a brilliant goal, cutting in from the left and curling the ball into the top right corner from 20 metres out. Veteran captain Corentin Tolisso curled one into the bottom right corner from outside the penalty area and Alexandre Lacazette blasted a shot into the top right following a rapid counterattack. Rennes replied early in the second half through 17-year-old striker Mohamed Kader Meïté before Lyon's fourth goal from Georges Mikautadze, which was the best of the night. Midfielder Rayan Cherki swapped passes inside the penalty area with Mikautadze and then, despite having almost no space, flicked the ball up to the Georgia winger, who controlled it on his chest before adroitly volleying in. The draw boosted Le Havre's chances of staying up after fellow relegation battlers Saint-Etienne earlier lost at Strasbourg 3-1. Le Havre were in 16th place and the relegation-promotion playoff spot, one point above Saint-Etienne. Lorient were promoted from the second tier after beating last-placed Caen 4-0. Saint-Etienne's defeat left the 10-time former champions in deep trouble. Strasbourg's scorers were left wing back Diego Moreira, striker Emanuel Emegha, and right wing back Dilane Bakwa, who finished a move skilfully started by Guéla Doué, the older brother of Paris Saint-Germain star Désiré Doué. Georgia winger Zuriko Davitashvili equalised for Saint-Etienne. On Friday, French champions PSG lost 3-1 at home to Nice to end their chances of finishing the league unbeaten.
