Da Cunha, 25, earned his first call-up to the French national team and started in the 1-0 victory over Belgium. After the match, the Como midfielder spoke with TF1.

"We played a great match, and although we gave our opponents a few chances, I think we deserved the win based on our overall performance. Michael's goal really lifted the entire team's spirits, and we're happy to have won this match. It was my first game, and the coach fully trusted me. He told me to do what I do at my club—play freely, compete, and help the team. I tried my best to do that, and I felt good and comfortable on the pitch. I'm very pleased with my debut here."

He added, "Getting called up to the national team for the first time is clearly no small thing. It feels incredible, I'm very happy. A few years ago, I was still playing in the second division with Como in Serie B, and today I'm in the French national team. It shows that if you work hard and never give up, opportunities will come. It really happened, and I'm very happy."
