June 2, 2021 France's Karim Benzema reacts after missing a penalty [REUTERS]Karim Benzema missed a penalty and hit the post but delivered a fine performance in his France comeback as the world champions beat 10-man Wales 3-0 in a Euro 2020 warm-up game on Wednesday. "I had good sensations after a week of hard physical work and a long club season," said Benzema. We still have time to fine-tune but what mattered tonight is that we tried things and that we won." Danny Ward made a spectacular stop from a Pogba header but Benzema had followed up and Williams used his hand to deflect away the striker's attempt. Benzema had another chance on 79 minutes as his half-volley hit the post before falling to Dembele, who scored France's third with a cool finish.
