15-Second Brief
Bradley Barcola failed to make an impact in France's victorious match against Belgium, receiving low ratings from local media. The winger continues to struggle this season, with no goals or assists in five matches for Liverpool.

Bradley Barcola is enduring a tough start to the season. The Liverpool winger struggled to leave his mark in France's match against Belgium, receiving poor ratings from the French press following the game.

Zinedine Zidane's side secured a 1-0 victory courtesy of a late goal from Michael Olise. This win marked the second consecutive triumph for the new head coach of the French national team.

Barcola spent 77 minutes on the pitch, recording a meagre expected goals statistic of just 0.05, while also losing possession eight times.

Foot Mercato, Get French Football News, and Maxifoot gave the 24-year-old winger a score of 5 out of 10. Eurosport France rated him even lower at 4.5, describing his performance as chaotic.

Barcola has also faced challenges at Liverpool, having played five matches without contributing any goals or assists since joining Andoni Iraola's side.

The competition for places on the flanks at Liverpool is fierce, with Cody Gakpo, Rio Ngumoa, and Victor Munoz all vying for the same positions.

After the international break, Liverpool will face Manchester City. Barcola will be eager to end his goal drought and solidify his place in Iraola's setup.
