The French team was very touched by the announcement of the death of the mother of the coach, Didier Deschamps. The latter returned to France and will let his deputy Guy Stéphan lead the Group I final against Norway tomorrow at 9 p.m. The players will try to win for their coach after showing him great signs of support.
The Parisian we also learn that a beautiful moment of humanity occurred last Tuesday during the Blues’ lunch. While the players were in the lunch room and Deschamps told them the sad news, Ibrahima Konaté stood up in front of his partners to hug his coach. A mark of affection far from the usual selection codes on the part of the Liverpool defender, also very marked by the death of his father which occurred a few months earlier.
