In the opening round of Group A at the UEFA U-17 Championship, Germany and France will clash at the Elbasan Arena in the city of the same name. The two sides have met six times in the youth tournament. At this same stage in 2007, Les Bleus came out on top with a brace from former Hoverla midfielder Damien Le Tallec, winning 2-1. Germany's Toni Kroos, who later starred for Real Madrid, scored in that match. In 2012, the Germans got their revenge with a 3-0 victory, as former Schalke player Max Meyer netted twice. In the 2015 final, France triumphed again, with Leicester striker Odsonne Édouard scoring a hat-trick in a 4-1 win. In the 2022 quarterfinals, the Tricolores advanced after a penalty shootout (1-1, 4-3). In the 2023 group stage, Germany came from behind to win 3-1, with Cercle Brugge striker Paris Brunner scoring twice.
