indeed pogba was the one who lost the ball prior to the third swiss goal
rabiot's mother (white) argued with pogba's relatives after this in the stands

it was also very satisfying to see france lose after pogba had 8 consecutive different celebrations after his goal, some influenced by tiktok (he is close to his 30ies) other by rap music, and also dancing with kipembe (who slipped even worse than boateng in the 3rd swiss goal, except that it wasn't against messi)
also benzema being called for this competition was the strangest thing ever
can you think of another 34 years old player that was starting in a big competition, despite not being called in the team in the past years, only getting called back one month before the competition?
without him france won a world cup, and went as far as the euro champs final, not bad for their latest 2 international competitions
giroud became the second top goal scorer ever for france, only 5 goals away from the all time record, and was put on the bench with no second thoughts
and all this to start the worst striker that ever started for france, with his record of 1220 minutes without goal unlikely to be beaten, not to mention his other records like worst striker in the history of the euro champs, longest period without goal for the french national team was because of him and france scored again as soon as he was replaced
reportedly other french players like pogba and others complained about the attention benzema was getting despite only coming back a month before the competition and having done nothing in the national team
and it was revealed in a book by some journalist that the french president macron was the one asking to get benzema back in the team:

you can easily understand the reasoning behind it since benzema is the only arab player to have chances of starting for france
because of rejection from females and arab females going with blacks, arab males commit crimes, terrorism, etc
just a month before the eurochamps the biggest storry in france was an arab insulting blacks caught on video

and since the team is mostly black...
other things benzema did that should have guaranteed that he would never be called again:
-saying deschamps "bowed to racists" when he didn't call him in 2016
https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...ema-accuses-didier-deschamps-france-euro-2016
an accusation that can get you in trouble in france from both the antifa and other groups, possibly terrorist groups (religious or political)
deschamp's house was vandalized after this declaration
-basically saying giroud was nothing compard to him publicly:
https://guardian.ng/sport/benzema-deepens-france-rift-by-ridiculing-go-kart-giroud/
-the sextape scandal investigation, where it was proven that he helped ransom a team mate in the french national team
can you imagine him in the locker room after that with his team mates?
