SEO Match Summary
France fell to a 2-1 defeat against Côte d'Ivoire in an International Friendly on 4 June, suffering an upset despite dominating possession metrics. The hosts created significantly more opportunities, registering 15 shots with 6 on target, but their 4-1-4-1 setup proved ineffective in converting pressure into goals. Côte d'Ivoire, operating in a compact 4-4-2 formation, were far more clinical with limited resources: they managed just 7 shots but placed 3 on target and converted two into goals. The visitors' goalkeeper made a save percentage of 33.33%, conceding exactly what the underlying metrics suggested, though without recorded top scorers the narrative centres on France's wastefulness in front of goal. Sebastian Gishamer oversaw proceedings as referee. The result marks a significant setback for France ahead of their competitive fixtures.

Goalkeeper Performance

Read it this way: PSxG conceded is how dangerous the shots on target were, Goals conceded is how many actually went in, Goals saved is the gap between the two (higher is better, a minus means he should have saved more), and Save % is the share of on-target shots kept out.
