Bayern Munich’s Benjamin Pavard has just scored a stunner to break the deadlock during France’s EURO 2024 qualifying match with Ireland in Dublin.
The French struggled to create chances in the first half against a resistant Irish team but it did not take long in the second for the deadlock to be broken.
Pavard intercepted an Irish pass high up the pitch and then hit a stunner which went in off the underside of the crossbar.
WHAT. A. HIT. ??
