Sports Mole looks at the highlights, man of the match, and stats from Thursday's Nations League clash between Israel and France.

France won their second Nations League game in a row when they deservedly beat Israel 4-1 on Thursday night at Bozsik Arena in Hungary.

Les Bleus opened the scoring through midfielder Eduardo Camavinga but were pegged back in the 24th minute by Omri Gandelman.

Christopher Nkunku restored France's lead just four minutes later thanks to brilliant work by both himself and Camavinga, who combined with the Chelsea forward near the penalty area.

Matteo Guendouzi and Bradley Barcola then added a quickfire late double to make sure of the points for Les Bleus.

The result leaves France in second place with six points from three games in their Nations League A group, one point behind leaders Italy.

Meanwhile, Israel are still searching for their first points of the group stage having now lost all three of their matches, putting them on course for an immediate relegation back to League B.

Israeli goalkeeper Omri Glazer will be disappointed that he was unable to save Camavinga's strike given the Real Madrid midfielder's effort from outside the box on the left was rather tame, but Glazer somehow fumbled his save and allowed the ball to trickle over the line.

Israel's equaliser was well taken by Gandelman, who drifted towards the penalty spot and headed home Oscar Gloukh's cross, but William Saliba and Theo Hernandez will feel they could have done more to prevent Gandelman from having so much time and space in the box.

Camavinga drifted infield from the right of the pitch in the 28th minute and beat two Israeli opponents before passing to Nkunku, who held the ball up with his back to goal near the edge of the penalty area and rolled the ball past defender Ilay Feingold before finishing from the left of six-yard box.

Matteo Guendouzi scored a third in the 87th minute when Theo Hernandez brought the ball from his own half towards the box and combined with Bradley Barcola, before the AC Milan left-back squared a pass to an onrushing Guendouzi, who struck into the bottom-left corner from the edge of the box.

There was still time for a fourth when Barcola struck into the top-right corner from inside the box on the left after good work from Ousmane Dembele, Randal Kolo Muani and Guendouzi.

Camavinga dances past two opponents and drive infield from the right before finding Christopher Nkunku on the edge of the penalty area, and the Chelsea forward finishes from the left of the six-yard box after rolling the ball past centre-back Ilay Feingold.

An exceptional assist and an exceptional goal!

87th min: Israel 1-3 France (Matteo Guendouzi)

Matteo Guendouzi scores a third for France in the 87th minute thanks to good work from Theo Hernandez and Bradley Barcola, with the former squaring a pass to Guendouzi, who strikes into the bottom-left corner from the edge of the box.

That's surely all three points for France?

89th min: Israel 1-4 France (Bradley Barcola)

Ousmane Dembele plays a ball infield from the right at Randal Kolo Muani, who allows the ball to roll between his legs towards Guendouzi before the Lazio midfielder assists Bradley Barcola, who finishes into the top-right corner from inside the box.

There's no doubt about the result now!



MAN OF THE MATCH - EDUARDO CAMAVINGA

Eduardo Camavinga undoubtedly benefitted from a goalkeeping error when he scored the opening goal of the match, but the Frenchman was integral to France's performance.

The Real Madrid midfielder was also heavily involved in Les Bleus' second goal, dancing past two opposition players before finding Nkunku with a deft pass behind Israel's midfield.

Camavinga also won seven of his 12 ground duels, won all five of his tackles and completed 54 of his 60 passes.
