Funny match for the Blues … which could finish in humiliation with a score of 5-1 in the second period finally turned into an almost tricolor reproductive at the end of the game, and the meeting ended with a score of 5-4 with Spanish who prayed for the referee to whistle the end. But during a good part of the match, it is clear that the French were a little difficult to see in front of much superior and technically superior ibères.
Didier Deschamps also knows that this result which makes up a little Spanish mastery will save him from many criticisms who could have fallen on him, he who was already taken to task on social networks. After the meeting, he spoke in front of the cameras of TF1 :: “It is a mixture of feeling, very severe to be led 2-0 at halftime, we are led 5-1, we come back, we could have made them tremble, we did a lot of good things, we had a master's deeper into this team in Spain. We were not effective, we took 5 goals so we can do better, but it's annoying because in the intentions it was. After that it is the very high level opposite, they were effective on each situation. The quality opposite brings you to make mistakes but we can do better. I will not incriminate that the defenders, they met in 1 against 1, Clément played, he was not 100% because he had to return to Madrid on Tuesday, he returned very late, Kalulu was his first, it is also a very young defense. I do not want to condemn Konaté, Kalulu or Lenglet but when you have Koundé, Upamecano, there is this connection and that you don't do it by slamming fingers, that's how it is. We were superior in terms of mastery, typing, play, we must not forget that. We know that it is the very high level and in relation to the youth of the group, it is something that will serve us. I make sure to be lucid, there have been very good things, everything is not to be discarded, obviously we have to do better if we take 5 goals but there are the intentions, we need this effectiveness because in front it is very strong ”.
