Didier Deschamps volleyed Bertrand Latour when the latter sent a score of 3 to Eduardo Camavinga, author of a big error on the opening score for the Scots.

Established in the midfield replacing Adrien Rabiot, preserved, Eduardo Camavinga did not score any points on Tuesday against Scotland. Consequence of a disastrous start to the match, marked by his offering to Billy Gilmour in the middle of the surface. After intercepting a hot ball near the penalty spot, the Madrilenian completely missed his pass to Aurélien Tchouameni, ideally serving the Brighton midfielder who took no time to shoot Mike Maignan.

Obviously, the former Rennais had difficulty recovering, multiplying the approximations before gradually raising the bar while the Blues had already turned the situation around thanks to an improbable double from Benjamin Pavard. However, insufficient in the eyes of Bertrand Latour when it comes to rating the Real Madrid midfielder. “I don’t give him much, 3 I would say”, he said before pointing out the numerous lost balloons in addition to his “magnificent assist” for his opponent.

A harsh rating which was not to the taste of Didier Deschamps, who passed by… “Three is unacceptable. What right do we have to put a three?” he cursed. “Because we get paid little to do that. So we modestly try to do it,” the journalist from La Chaîne L’Equipe then awkwardly replied, with the French coach replying: “Oh okay, it’s in relation to the salary. »

Asked to rate his player, the former midfielder was more magnanimous. “Five,” he whispered, provoking the astonishment of his opponent: “In this case, Pavard, he has 10.” “Twelve too… You put what you want. But you are severe, too severe, he said, adding: “He made a mistake which conditioned his ten, fifteen minutes which followed but from the moment we equalized, when we took the advantage, it was much more in line with what he is capable of TO DO. But you remember his error, which is an error. His mistake is worth three, not his match. But it’s not me who puts the notes. »

“Indulgence is the beginning of weakness” Bertrand Latour then replied, once again causing the consternation of Didier Deschamps. “It’s normal that you are paid so little, it’s normal,” he said to conclude.
