Raphael Varane's goal was his first for his country.

UEFA EURO 2016 will be hosted by France.

They have failed to progress further than the
quarter-finals stage at the past four tournaments they have qualified for - an early group stage exist in 2010 world cup and a group stage exist in EURO 2008.

However they were eliminated by Germany at FIFA world cup 2014 while at Euro 2012 they also went out to eventual champions Spain.

France face Denmark in their next international friendly.

Neymar netted his 43rd goal for Brazil and is just a goal behind Zico in the all time scorers in Brazilian history.

Former Brazil boss Felipe Scolari resigned after seeing his team trashed by Germany in a world cup record, 7-1 in the semi-finals and a 3-0 loss to the Netherlands in the third and fourth playoff.

Dunga took charge of Brazil in July and maintains his 100% winning streak.

Dunga is looking forward to redeem the country's image from the world cup thrashing by the Germans.

Dunga took charge of Brazil from 2006 - 2010 in his previous spell.

Brazil revenged a 3 - 0 defeat to France at FIFA world cup final in 1998 by defeating them by 3 - 1 in Stade de France.
