Les Bleus' bus blunder! How France managed to accidentally leave Arsenal star William Saliba behind after frustrating Poland draw at Euro 2024 - explained

The centre-back was selected to take a doping test after his team's Euro 2024 clash in Dortmund on Tuesday, L'Equipe reports. However, the test took longer than expected and he could not board the team bus when it left the stadium at 9pm. Instead, Saliba finally departed around 10.30pm in a van accompanied by members of the French team's staff.

France ended the group stage with a frustrating draw against Poland. As Austria beat the Netherlands 3-2 in the group's other match, Ralf Rangnick's team went top of the pool while France finished second and the Dutch came in third.

Saliba and his France team-mates welcomed family members to their training camp in Bad Lippspringe on Tuesday evening after the match and they will then start preparing for the Euro 2024 round of 16.

Didier Deschamps' team will find out who they will come up against in the next round of the competition on Wednesday. They will face the runners-up of Group E, which consists of Belgium, Romania, Slovakia and Ukraine.
