At the forty-ninth minute of the match between France and the Netherlands, part of the public at the Stade de France expressed their hostility towards Emmanuel Macron.
Social news was invited to the Stade de France. This Friday, when the Blues faced the Netherlands in the context of qualifying for Euro 2024, some of the spectators present in the bays of the enclosure expressed their disagreement with the decisions taken by the government concerning the extension of the retirement age. As a symbol, it was in the forty-ninth minute of play that boos arose.
Whistles therefore suddenly sounded at this famous minute, an obvious nod to the 49-3 to which the government of Prime Minister Élisabeth Borne regularly resorts at the moment to have its texts adopted without needing the vote of the National Assembly. . “Macron resignation” did not escape the observers present at the Stade de France.

To be more precise: there were boos then whistles and “Macron resignation” several times. Also, it wasn’t the WHOLE audience, just a portion.

Not all the public
However, these manifestations of anger were not taken up by the majority of spectators, who were more interested in the spectacle offered by the troupe of Didier Deschamps and his new captain, Kylian Mbappé. Very inspired by Orange, the French dominated the debate from one end of the meeting to the other. To validate the quality of the show offered this Friday by the Blues, the public did not have to use the 49-3. Everyone agreed that he had enjoyed himself.
