Martial was given the chance to impress on just his second international call-up and got off to the perfect start against Denmark
Anthony Martial's dream season has continued to get better after he impressed just minutes into his full France debut.
The £36million Manchester United man was handed his first start for the national team by boss Didier Deschamps in their friendly with Denmark on Sunday evening.
He immediately repaid his manager's faith in him by teeing up Olivier Giroud to put France ahead just four minutes into the match.
Since his move to United, Martial has bagged four goals and put in a host of impressive performances, despite being initially branded as a last-gasp deadline day panic buy.
He now stands a great chance of representing his country at the European Championships next summer, during their home finals.
France started their friendly clash like rapid-fire with Denmark, as Arsenal star Giroud doubled the scoring just two minutes after he netted his first.
Giroud recently admitted that he needed to toughen up and work his way back in the Gunners side, after he was dropped for Theo Walcott.
Denmark's Erik Sviatchenko scored a late consolation for the hosts, but they lost the match 2-1.
Alongside Martial and Giroud, Morgan Schneiderlin, Moussa Sissoko and Eliaquim Mangala were the other Premier League stars to feature in the game.
