France advanced to a second straight World Cup final on Wednesday thanks to a goal from Theo Hernandez against Morocco. But if his brother hadn’t become hurt early in the competition, things might have turned out quite differently. In France’s opening 4-1 triumph over Australia, Lucas Hernandez tore his anterior cruciate ligament. Forcing the Bayern Munich defender to miss several months of action. After losing Ballon d’Or winner Karim Benzema to a thigh injury a few days prior, France coach Didier Deschamps already found himself without first-choice midfielders Paul Pogba and N’Golo Kante.
Deschamps who abandoned his experiment
Deschamps, who abandoned his experiment with a three-man defence and switched to a 4-3-3 system right before the World Cup in Qatar. May have seen it as a type of blessing in disguise.
Theo Hernandez is a better fit at left-back than his brother, who is a left-sided central defender by trade. Lucas Hernandez started every game as France’s World Cup-winning team in 2018. But Theo is more naturally suited to the position.
Theo Hernandez, who was selected for the Serie A team of the season three times in a row. Assisted AC Milan in snapping an 11-year title drought last season.
He adds offensive strength to the French team by lining up on Kylian Mbappe’s left, and he helped out with two assists during the group stage. However, he has occasionally shown defensive frailty.
