Lys Mousset at the double for France under-21s

Written by Iain Pearce

Lys Mousset marked his France under-21s debut with an impressive double away from home.

The 21-year-old took his chance in Albania with two smart first-half finishes.

In the 23rd minute Mousset stole in front of his marker to neatly nudge home a volley, with the striker turning his defender this way and that before firing home a crisp low strike on the stroke of half time for his second.

France went on to win the youth friendly 3-0.

Mousset will have the chance to impress again on Thursday night as France under-21s host Cameroon under-21s.
