Les meilleurs buteurs de l’équipe de France avant la Coupe du monde 2026

Avant de s’envoler demain pour les Etats-Unis et la Coupe du monde, 15 des 26 joueurs retenus avec l’équipe de France ont déjà marqué avec l’équipe nationale.

La France a terminé sa préparation et peut désormais se tourner exclusivement vers la Coupe du monde où elle entrera en lice le 16 juin contre le Sénégal dans le groupe I au MetLife Stadium à East Rutherford dans le New Jersey.

Avec son triplé inscrit hier soir à Lille contre l’Irlande du Nord, Michael Olise devient l’un des meilleurs buteurs actuels des Bleus où 15 joueurs sur 26 ont déjà marqué au moins un but avec les Tricolores. L’ailier du Bayern Munich rejoint avec 7 buts, Ousmane Dembélé et Adrien Rabiot. Les trois hommes sont en revanche très loin du capitaine Kylian Mbappé, auteur de 56 buts, à une unité du record établi par Olivier Giroud. realschule-moosburg.de

The UFC is set to make history this weekend with UFC Freedom 250, an unprecedented fight card taking place on the South Lawn of the White House in Washington, D.C.

The event, also known as UFC White House, is being held as part of celebrations marking the 250th anniversary of the United States Declaration of Independence.

It features a championship main event between undefeated lightweight king Ilia Topuria and interim champion Justin Gaethje, while Alex Pereira looks to make UFC history in the co-main event.

For South African fans, the action will unfold during the early hours of Monday morning.

Why UFC Freedom 250 Is Making History

The event is already being described as one of the most ambitious productions in UFC history.

A massive custom-built arena known as “The Claw” has been constructed on the White House grounds specifically for the event. The temporary structure covers the Octagon and spectator seating area and has transformed the South Lawn into a professional fight venue.

The card is expected to attract global attention far beyond traditional MMA audiences due to its unique location and political significance.

Alex Pereira Chasing an Unprecedented UFC Record

One of the biggest storylines heading into UFC Freedom 250 involves Brazilian superstar Alex Pereira.

The former middleweight and light heavyweight champion faces Ciryl Gane in the co-main event with the chance to become the first fighter in UFC history to capture titles across three weight divisions.

A victory would cement Pereira’s place among the greatest fighters the sport has ever produced.

Topuria Looks to Extend Unbeaten Run

In the headline fight, lightweight champion Ilia Topuria puts his unbeaten record on the line against one of the division’s most dangerous fighters.

Justin Gaethje remains one of the UFC’s most popular stars thanks to his aggressive style and willingness to engage in all-out wars inside the Octagon.

A victory for Topuria would further strengthen his claim as one of the pound-for-pound best fighters in the world. A win for Gaethje would complete one of the biggest upsets of the year.

Weather Concerns Hover Over White House Event

Because the event is being held outdoors, organisers are keeping a close eye on weather forecasts.

Forecasters have warned of possible rain and thunderstorms in Washington, D.C. during the fight window, creating uncertainty around conditions for both athletes and spectators.

Unlike traditional indoor UFC events, Freedom 250 will be exposed to changing weather conditions throughout the night.

Joe Rogan Criticises Outdoor UFC Event

The unusual setting has also sparked criticism from long-time UFC commentator Joe Rogan.

Speaking on his podcast, Rogan questioned the decision to stage a professional fight event outdoors, citing concerns over humidity, temperature fluctuations and environmental factors that could impact athlete performance.

His comments have added another layer of intrigue to an event that has already dominated MMA headlines.

UFC Freedom 250 Could Be One of the Most-Watched Events of the Year

With a championship main event, a potential history-making co-main event, a White House setting and worldwide media attention, UFC Freedom 250 has all the ingredients of a blockbuster event.

For South African fans, the key time to remember is 2am SAST on Monday, 15 June, when the main card gets underway.

Whether you’re tuning in for Topuria vs Gaethje, Pereira’s bid for history or simply to witness a UFC event unlike any other, Freedom 250 promises to be one of the most talked-about fight nights of 2026.

Le groupe Mobondo sème la terreur depuis 2022 dans les provinces du Kwilu, du Kwango, du Mai-Ndombe et dans certaines zones périphériques de Kinshasa. À l'origine, un conflit foncier entre deux communautés, les Teke et Yaka, qui a dégénéré en violences armées. Le gouvernement congolais affirme avoir enregistré plusieurs centaines redditions de miliciens depuis janvier. Mais à 130 kilomètres de la capitale de RDC, un habitant raconte autre chose. Témoignage.

It was confirmed on Sunday, somewhat unexpectedly, that Springbok attack coach Tony Brown would be returning home to take up a coaching position with the New Zealand Rugby Union in 2028.

Many have questioned the timing of the All Blacks’ announcement, as well as whether it is feasible for Brown to remain so closely involved in the Springboks’ inner circle before heading to their arch-rivals, but there are unlikely to be such concerns.

Former All Blacks wing John Kirwan was someone who quipped that Brown would help New Zealand “steal” all the Springboks’ “intellectual property”, and yet a more valid point was made by Springbok legend Victor Matfield when he insisted there really weren’t that many state secrets that could be given away.

“I think everyone knows what the DNA of the Springboks is,” Matfield commented said. “We want to dominate the set-piece, dominate territory, and the kicking game and aerial battle are hugely important to us. Then we’ve got X-factor players who can hurt you from anywhere.”

Springboks should also be confident in how to replace Tony Brown

As the Springboks need to consider their succession planning, Rassie Erasmus will be happily watching the success of Johan Ackermann at the Bulls as he’s imperiously led the Bulls to the URC final.

Let’s not forget the success he also previously had at the Lions during the Super Rugby era, turning them into one of the most exciting attacking team’s in the competition.

Looking overseas, there is also Franco Smith, who has worked wonders with the Glasgow Warriors and is renowned for his attack-minded rugby brain.

More options to consider

Generally speaking, there are also other assistant coach options to consider such as bringing back Jacques Nienaber as he begins to grow disillusioned at Leinster.

Then there is of course of Johann van Graan who has come of age as a coach at Bath, and could be someone else for the Springboks to consider luring into their system after the next World Cup.

No reason to worry

Besides having an array of options to assess between now and the time Tony Brown departs, the New Zealander has also the Springboks are his “only focus” at the moment.

“My contract with New Zealand Rugby only begins in 2028, so there is still a long road ahead before that comes into play,” Brown said in a SA Rugby statement.

“Right now, I am fully committed to the Springboks. What we are building and trying to achieve as a team over the next two years is my only focus.”
