Saliba helps France to first Nations League win

William Saliba played 90 minutes and kept a clean sheet in France’s 2-0 win at home to Belgium in the UEFA Nations League on Monday night.

France’s goals came courtesy of Randal Kolo Muani and Ousmane Dembele either side of half-time, and Les Bleus are now second in League A Group 2 with three points from two games.

Elsewhere in the competition, Martin Odegaard played 67 minutes of Norway’s 2-1 win at home to Austria before being forced off with an ankle injury.

Norway went ahead through Felix Horn Myhre in the ninth minute before Marcel Sabitzer reduced the arrears with half-time approaching. Erling Haaland struck the winning goal for Norway with ten minutes remaining.
