The French coach, Didier Deschamps, admitted that his troops were put in difficulty by Belgium on Monday.
France won again in the Nations League this Monday, but it was not without difficulty. In Belgium, the Tricolores had difficulty getting rid of the Red Devils. At the final whistle, Didier Deschamps admitted that the evening had been delicate.
“We were shaken for a good 20, 25 minutes at the start of the match. They put a lot of intensity and when we recovered we made technical errors. We didn’t keep the ball and we got yellows. It was better at the end of the 1e half-time. Obviously their missed penalty is good for us, even if we don’t have to concede the goal. What bothered me the most was that we tiptoed around. It was complicated, we did well on the 1e
period “he admitted at the microphone of TF1.
Deschamps: “I shook them”
Then asked about the speech he was able to give to his men during the break, Deschamps replied: “We shook them, without shaking everyone. We had to release the ball faster and preferably forward. In 2e Halftime, they had chances, but so did we. We had a more rational grid of the land. We are perhaps happy to win this match, a little by force. But, we must not take away the merit of the team that wins.”
His defender Ibrahima Konaté also admitted that the match had been difficult, but he wants “ savor this victory, because we suffered so much.” “But we knew how to stay as a team and give the best of ourselves. We can be happy, and we can see what went wrong,” he added.
