It's not every week since the start of the season that Randal Kolo Muani can claim the title of man of the match. This is what was awarded to him this Tuesday evening, notably by the editorial staff of French Football Weekly in its notes, after his very good performance against Chile, where he scored a headed goal and delivered an assist for Giroud . He also won 12 of his 17 duels and continued to provoke in the right lane. Far from the image of a player lacking confidence on the PSG side.
Asked about TF1 At the end of the meeting, he confirmed all the good that the selection had done him. “It did me a lot of good. I'm proud of myself and I think I can gain confidence every day. I will try to continue this momentum”he assured, before discussing his role on the right side. “It's my strong point, I'm more dangerous when I'm facing the game. It worked for me today, we're going to continue like that, it's the right dynamic. »
Where to play it?
And Kolo Muani was also able to hear the speech of his coach, present at his side. “He doesn’t play big. If I tell him that, already… If he is there it is because he is capable of doing it. This is his merit. We talked, he knows he has my trust. What is asked of him in his club is up to his coach. With us, he has this efficiency. He needs to have confidence like all players. He can do that and things even better”launched Deschamps, who has not stopped defending his player lately.
While Marcus Thuram disappointed against Germany and Olivier Giroud looks his age, Kolo Muani has his cards to play to take on starting status. But it is on the right side that he stands out. Corridor that Ousmane Dembélé and Kingsley Coman are already fighting over, when the latter is not injured. Can he repeat this kind of performance in a more central role? This is where the opportunities to play are found, just like at PSG…
