2017: The French are threatening to run away with this game. Benzema, searching for his first goal of the tournament, gets a shot away from outside the penalty area for France, but it is straight at Myatov. Les Bleus are on the verge of making it 23 games unbeaten.

2012: That’s two goals in a four-minute span and France is going top of the group. Cabaye scores his first international goal when he runs on to Karim Benzema’s diagonal through-ball and shoots left-footed into the far corner. Ukraine’s players look stunned.

2008: Finally, Menez gets his goal! The Paris Saint-Germain winger cuts inside from the right and shoots left-footed inside the near post. The Donbass Arena is silenced. Hold on, another goal for France
