Adrien Rabiot became a member of the French team. After a tumultuous history with the Blues and Didier Deschamps, the AC Milan player is today essential in the French coach's midfield. This Friday evening, the former OM and PSG player had a strange evening at the Parc des Princes. Whistled by his former audience at the start of the match, Rabiot was finally celebrated after scoring the second goal of the victory against Azerbaijan (3-0). Questioned after the meeting on TF1, the 30-year-old expressed his joy:
“When we meet teams like that, with a five-man defense, it’s always complicated. In the first half, we had difficulty hitting, we were slow in transmissions. In the second half, it was much better. We made them run, you have to know how to be patient in these kinds of matches, it paid off. We took 2-3…we knew we were going to find the fault. The work is done even if we could have put more into it. It's good for the team. A second goal is important against a team like that, something can always happen. I'm very happy to score here tonight, for the jersey of course but it makes me happy to be applauded here. I think if we win in Iceland, we will qualify. It was important to do the job tonight. It will be another match there, we will be more serene for the month of November.
