After getting a last-minute summons from Didier Deschamps to the France team, Boubacar Kamara made the decision to take a chance and postpone his honeymoon.
The Aston Villa player was given the opportunity to make his senior debut for his nation when injuries caused Les Bleus to hunt for replacements and the youngster cut short his vacation in paradise to return to his native France, only for the midfielder to be left as an unused substitute by his manager.
Didier Deschamps chose the 23-year-old to replace the injured Adrien Rabiot for the matches against Gibraltar and Greece during the post-season international break.
Kamara was celebrating his new marriage to Coralie Porrovecchio on his honeymoon when he received the call.
Just days after they got hitched, Porrovecchio took to social media to share images of their journey back to France, featuring a picture of them in a car on the road alongside the caption: “ON MY WAY”, with Kamara later hopping onto to a private jet along with his suitcases.

However, it all proved to be in vain for Kamara when he joined up with the national team.
Not only was he left out of the 3-0 win over Gibraltar on Friday, Deschamps brutally overlooked the midfielder during the 1-0 victory over Greece on Monday as well.
Instead, the experienced coach chose Real Madrid pair Aurelien Tchouameni and Eduardo Camavinga to make up the central midfield duo.
