2017 U-20 World Cup round-up, Group E, round 1: France takes comfortable win to start

Related Topics: France

The only pre-tournament question about Group E of the 2017 Men's U-20 World Cup was which team will finish second. France seemed the prohibitive favorite to win the group, and is a favorite to win the tournament.

No change to that question after the first round of games: France looks a cut above the rest of Group E still, and it isn't clear which of the other three teams will prove second-best.

France 3-0 Honduras

It's a stretch to say Honduras challenged France in this game, but Los Catrachos might reasonably feel they should have at least got a goal out of the game.
