Hugo Lloris became the 3rd most capped French international of all time on Sunday as his side drew 0-0 with Portugal. The Spurs shot stopper put in a solid display where he made 3 saves and ultimately wrote his name into the history books.
Lloris made his 117th appearance in the UEFA Nations League fixture allowing him to surpass Marcel Desailly (116). Only Thierry Henry (123) and Lilian Thuram (142) have appeared more times for the French national team.
His first call up to the senior squad came in 2008 when France played Uruguay in a friendly. Hugo Lloris has gone on to play in 2 EURO competitions as well as 3 World Cups for his country. The 2018 World Cup would prove to be one to remember for Lloris as he captained his nation to their first world title since 1998.
Croatia, who France beat 4-2 in the 2018 final will face Les Bleus again tomorrow night in their final Nations League game of the international break. It will be an important fixture for Lloris & France as they require 3 points if they are to give themselves any chance of topping their group.
