Brussels had seemed set to hold France to a frustrating night until Kiki arrived with three minutes left. Without the injured forward in the starting picture, Les Bleus had struggled to break the deadlock, but the attacker produced a late moment of individual quality to secure a 1-0 victory.
The news from the club
In the 87th minute, Kiki controlled the ball on his shoulder in a stylish first touch before carrying it forward from inside his own half. He then finished with a precise placed effort to give France the only goal of the match.
The strike delivered another win for Les Bleus under Zidane, their second since his return to the role.
