Hugo Lloris, Steve Mandanda, Blaise Matuidi, Rafael Varane, and other players were honored by the France national team.
In the stadium for France's first Euro qualifying match against Netherlands were four former football players.
On Friday, the Les Blues defeated the Oranje 4-0 thanks to goals from Kylian Mbappe (2), Antoine Griezmann, and Ibrahim Kounate.
While they dominated Ronald Koeman's Netherlands team in the first half, Didier Deschamps' team jumped out to a three-goal lead.
In the 90th minute, the Netherlands had a chance to score, but Memphis Depay missed the penalty.
When Steve Mandanda, Raphael Varane, Hugo Lloris, and Blaise Matuidi were all recognized by the French Football Authority for their contributions to the National Team, it was one of the most talked-about moments of the evening.
It's just fantastic to see The Four Superstars in the center of the field while they are being cheered by the crowd in the picture above.
Hugo Lloris, Raphael Varane, and Steve Mandanda recently announced their retirement from international service, but Blaise Matuidi had already left the team a few years before.
