The French team has not missed a penalty in four years

While the penalty shootout against Argentina (3-3, 4-2 on penalties) in the 2022 World Cup final may have traumatized France fans, the Blues' attackers are quite comfortable taking penalties. As Opta noted after Tuesday's 2-1 win over Iceland , France have converted each of their last 15 penalties.

The last time he failed to take this 11-meter penalty was in June 2021, in a friendly against Wales (3-0): on his return to the French national team after a five-year absence, Karim Benzema saw his shot saved by goalkeeper Danny Ward. Since then, there have been 15 successful penalties: 11 by Mbappé, 2 by Antoine Griezmann, 1 by Randal Kolo Muani, and 1 by Benzema.
