Connor Roberts played the full game as Wales continued their preparations for Euro 2020 with a friendly defeat to world champions France in Nice.

The Swansea City defender, playing just four days after the play-off final, was named in Rob Page's starting line-up, while Swans colleague Ben Cabango was an unused substitute.

Wales started positively, but suffered a blow when Neco Williams was controversially red-carded after being adjudged to have handled a goal-bound shot.

Danny Ward saved Karim Benzema's resulting penalty, but goals from Kylian Mbappe, Antoine Griezemann and Ousmane Dembele ultimately gave Les Bleus a 3-0 victory.

Wales now face Albania in Cardiff on Saturday in their final warm-up game before the tournament begins. Their first game in Group A sees them take on Switzerland in Baku on June 12.
