How Mbappe, Dembele, Doue, Olise are crushing opponents

How Mbappe, Dembele, Doue, Olise are crushing opponents

Published by Webster

Before the 1984 European Championship, the French manager Michel Hidalgo had a problem. He had four virtuosic playmakers, but not a centre forward. An idea was born, he made a midfield square with his gifted playmakers, helmed by the impeccable Michel Platini. It came to be known as magic square, or the Le Carre Magique, and they inspired their maiden championship triumph of note. Decades later, Hidalgo’s distant successor Didier Deschamps – whose France beat Norway 4-1 to top World Cup Group I – had a problem, too. He had a superfluity of riches that he couldn’t configure the perfect deception code. Both, Kylian Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele, were wingmen repositioned to the centre by their clubs with staggering success. But he could slot only one. He could drop Mbappe or shunt him to the left for Dembele; he could not bench Dembele, the reigning footballer of the year, either.

3 min readFeb 22, 2026 11:23 PM IST India captain Suryakumar Yadav rued the lack of partnerships and the early wickets that fell inside the powerplay during the run-chase as the hosts were thrashed by 76 runs in a Super 8s clash at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday. Chasing 188, India were never really in the contest in the second half after being reduced to 26/3 in the fifth over. Eventually, they were bowled out for a paltry 111 in the 19th over. ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW VIDEO Assessing India’s poor batting performance, Suryakumar said: “Sometimes you have to think if you’re chasing 180-185, you can’t win the game in the powerplay, but you might lose the game in the powerplay. We lost too many wickets in that phase, and then we couldn’t have small, small partnerships, which we wanted to have. But then that’s part of the game. We’ll sit back and learn from it, and then come back stronger.” Having been asked to field first, India were off to a great …

4 min readFeb 20, 2026 11:52 PM IST The result was never really in question in Australia’s final match of the T20 World Cup this year, as they demolished Oman by nine wickets in Pallekele on Friday. But the tones of player of the match Adam Zampa and captain Mitchell Marsh’s post-match interviews could only be described as funereal. The word ‘disappointed’ was uttered a handful of times, with Zampa adding that he found it hard to believe Australia are flying back home tomorrow. ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW VIDEO After defeats to Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka ended their campaign before Super 8s, Australia had nothing left to play for but turned up with a professional display. Zampa’s 4-wicket haul saw Oman get bowled out for 104 and Marsh then batted with the urgency of someone who just wanted to get the job done quickly and go home. Chasing a modest target of 105 for victory, the skipper ruthlessly dispatched Oman’s bowlers to all corners of the park, bringing up his half-century off just 26 ⁠balls inside …
