Rabiot calmed down immediately by Riolo

Sunday evening, Adrien Rabiot had his first start in the French team since the semi-final of

Euro 2024 lost to Spain. The Olympique de Marseille midfielder clearly won points by scoring a double.

The former Juventus Turin player wanted to highlight the rediscovered collective of the Blues. “It’s been a long time since we’ve had a match like that, since we haven’t fought like this together, until the end. We also aimed to win with a two-goal margin, and we did it. But frankly, the mutual assistance there was in this match, the fighting spirit, the team spirit, must be highlighted. Honestly, we had fun playing this match”he commented after the meeting on TF1.

Rabiot and the Blues, too few demands

A speech that is too conventional according to

Daniel Riolo. “It highlights all the qualities of the Blues, which are therefore not football qualities, but sports qualities. That’s already it: combativeness, determination, character… It’s very, very good. That means they could do Greco-Roman wrestling, lots of other things, not just football, that’s good. From the moment when the cursor of the requirement has only decreased, inevitably, we are satisfied with little. They rarely delight us”lamented the sports journalist on RMC.

Didier Deschamps’ men will play their Nations League quarter-final on Thursday March 20 and Sunday March 23. The Blues’ future opponent will be known this Friday, November 22 during the draw in Nyon (Switzerland).
