Didier Deschamps is really not happy. The laborious victory of the French team against Iceland (2-1), Tuesday evening at the Parc des Princes, for a second success in the qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup, was marked by the whistles of the Parisian public against Adrien Rabiot.
The name of the midfielder trained at PSG and passed through OM was first hooked during the announcement of the teams before the meeting, as its coach (after the Dembélé case). Then Rabiot was targeted when he got into play in the second half (70th) and part of the audience whistled the player to each of his balls.
“Mine, I did not hear them because I am in the locker room when it happens, it may be the same as in relation to Adri. That there are Paris supporters at the park, it's normal, but he is a player from the French team, it should not happen, it is unacceptable. I know the rivalries between the clubs and it remains a minority of supporters, unfortunately “launched Deschamps after the meeting.
Deschamps: “The real audience supports us”
Before continuing: “On the last action (Balle recovery)he returned everyone a little. I'm not going to complain about the public, the real audience supports us, but if I have to have players play according to the place … that does not have to be, that's all “.
The Blues coach will be precisely deprived of Aurélien Tchouameni, excluded against the Icelandic, in the next match against Azerbaijan on October 10 (and perhaps for the second meeting against the Icelanders, three days later in Reykjavik). Manu Koné, who “Take space” Now in this team (dixit its coach), could then be associated with Rabiot.
