Karim Benzema and Kylian Mbappe’s goals sealed the victory for Didier Deschamps France last night. Based on poor performance and form, this article states two Chelsea star players responsible for Spain’s defeat in the UEFA Nations League final yesterday.

Marcos Alonso

Chelsea’s left-back was not in his best form last night, despite playing well against Italy in the semis. Alonso on different occasions overlapped and it gave France’s counterattack masters an overhead. Although Spain was able to cover up the whole midfield, making it difficult for France to possess the ball.

The France national team who are specialists in counter-attacks made good use of it last night through the wings. Alonso’s sluggishness was another reason Kylian Mbappe and Karim Benzema dominated the left-wing.

Cesar Azpilicueta

Based on poor form and performance, Chelsea’s captain, and Spain’s right-back Cesar Azpilicueta was one of the defenders who lost focus immediately after Oyarzabal scored. Karim Benzema pulled the stunning goal right in front of Cesar Azpilicueta who did not attempt to block the shot.
