France recorded the biggest victory in their history – and set a new men’s European Championship qualifying record – with a 14-0 rout of 10-man Gibraltar on Saturday, as Kylian Mbappé grabbed a hat-trick and Warren Zaïre-Emery scored on his debut.

France were 7-0 up by half-time in their Euro 2024 Group B qualifier with Marcus Thuram, Zaïre-Emery, Mbappé, Jonathan Clauss, Kingsley Coman and Youssouf Fofana on the scoresheet after they had taken the lead through a third-minute own goal.

Gibraltar were reduced to 10 men in the 18th minute when Ethan Santos was sent off and France’s biggest ever win, 10-0 over Azerbaijan in 1995, was clearly within sight.

An Adrien Rabiot goal and Coman’s second strike brought the record closer and Ousmane Dembélé made it 10-0 before Mbappé added two more and Olivier Giroud got in on the act with a late double. 

The 14-0 win is the biggest victory in qualifying for the men’s European Championship, eclipsing Germany’s 13-0 rout of San Marino in 2006.

Elsewhere, a Wout Weghorst early goal ensured the Netherlands clinched a berth at Euro 2024 as they beat Ireland 1-0 at the Johan Cruyff Arena to finish second in Group B.
