We are reassured.
While a difficult year 2024 ended with a beautiful Italian evening for the French team, Didier Deschamps appeared somewhat relieved at the microphone of TF1. Proud of the tactical performance of his flock, the coach savored this success (3-1): “We were very effective this evening on set pieces because they were taken very well by Lucas Digne, very well placed too. With a younger group, there was a need for freshness. Against an Italian team full of confidence, winning here is very good. First place was possible, hats off to the whole group. »
The boss of Clairefontaine then returned to his year 2024, still with his habit of not finishing his sentences: “We are semi-finalists of the Euro with the problems we had, we were qualified before this match, now we are going to seek first place… I do! We are in a group with Belgium, Italy, if you look at the other groups, it is not the same. If we have to win every match 3-0…”. Relaunched on his mental freshness after twelve years at the head of the Blues, the Basque wanted to pull the rug out from under him: “It’s okay eh, you can say whatever you want!” I'm disconnected, that suits me just fine. I am at the heart of what is happening in the locker room, with different choices. I'm fine, I have lots of energy, my calm, my serenity. Afterwards when things don't go so well… Yes it's been a complicated year but I'm doing very well. »
