Summary
France Football just announced their squad for their upcoming FIFA World Cup Qualifier games. They play Ukraine at home and Azerbaijan away and will look to seal their qualification for next year's mega-event without many hiccups. However, there have been some notable inclusions as well as exclusions from the squad. Aurelien Tchouameni misses out due to an unfortunate thigh injury, but the one who is making the headlines is Jean-Philippe Mateta. Crystal Palace's star forward, who helped them win two trophies in the past year - the FA Cup and the Community Shield - has been called up by Didier Deschamps for the two Qualifier games. Mateta has been quite instrumental to Palace's success in recent times and is one of the most important assets of Oliver Glasner. With 14 goals in the Premier League last season and a good start to the new season, this call-up to the national team was more than deserved.
