France manager Didier Deschamps fielded what was likely his strongest starting XI for his final home match in charge, and one player stole the spotlight with an outstanding hat-trick performance.

That player was Michael Olise.

Michael O'Neill's Northern Ireland team held firm and managed to keep the scoreline level until the 43rd minute, when their resistance was finally broken in unfortunate circumstances.

A long, precise pass from Dayot Upamecano found Ousmane Dembélé, whose shot took a deflection and fell perfectly for Olise, allowing him to slot home from close range without hesitation.

The Bayern Munich attacker then added two more goals after the interval, both showing his trademark quality and finishing prowess.

His second goal came from a sharp strike inside the box, while his third—a beautifully curled effort from distance—was a moment of pure class that completed his hat-trick.

With such a commanding display, many fans are wondering if this is a preview of what’s to come for France at the upcoming World Cup.
