Since Neymar Plays for Paris St. Germain the ticket prices are unaffordable and hard to get.So thank god, a international (although friendly) football match came up with low ticket prices!
In my point of view it is also a certain part of culture to feel the spirit of the football fans and of course, getting the French flag painted on your cheeks makes you feel much more frenchy ;-)
After a few minutes French led 1:0 and the mood of everyone was great from the beginning! Now I know where the "Alleeeeeeez, Alleeeeez" cheers come from (as we also sing it in Austria haha), and after some listening I also joined the singers with "Ici c'est la France" and "Allez les bleus".
Second halftime: second goal was scored! Awesome match.
PS: I am aware of using the term football instead of soccer because we are in Europe :-P
