After the meeting, Konaté had assured that the man with the whistle had made the right decision: “No, that's my opinion. There is a Var, there is everything you need. If there is a stroller, I should have taken red! I tell you no. It is true that I am strong, but I don't put power, I just put my arm. There, it was really soft on my part. ” Behind the scenes, the tricolor defender's discourse would be a different hair. Indeed, Le Parisien explains that Konaté confessed to his relatives that he knew that he deserved the expulsion after the action against Barcola.
