Between the perception of observers and the analysis of Didier Deschamps or his teammates, there is a gulf when it comes to discussing Antoine Griezmann’s new performance against Belgium.
Antoine Griezmann is not helped. After being a relay player against Austria, second striker against the Netherlands, and a simple substitute against Poland, the French number 7 was left with a new role on Monday for the clash against Belgium. The Madrilenian had to play on the right flank this time, in a winger role.
The person concerned assures that he is happy with this situation. “I can play in any position. No matter where I am, I will give it my all,” he assured again after the victory against Belgium. But if the Mâconnais did not spare his efforts, he delivered a new calamitous performance against the Red Devils.
With congratulations from Deschamps…
Antoine Griezmann has indeed multiplied bad choices and technical errors. Also lacking inspiration while the Blues were waiting in vain for a flash, the former Barcelona player did not make up for it on set pieces. “I felt good, I knew what I had to do. I tried to make calls in depth and also take the axis, sometimes. I had two, three positions to strike, I should have struck, I didn’t and I looked for more one-twos, especially with Marcus”, he analyzed after the meeting.
And Didier Deschamps was just as satisfied with his performance. He was very interesting with the ball, he can be even more efficient, but especially in the grid of the field. If Jules Koundé had such a match, that’s it…», The French coach thus confided, the Barcelona full-back agreeing: “Antoine is one of the reasons why I also had a good match because he helped me a lot on the defensive side.”
Antoine Griezmann in any case benefits from the confidence of his coach. “In big matches, I know I can count on him. Antoine, I know his ability to adapt,” whispered the former captain of the Blues.
