The Blues closed the first rally of the Zidane era on a good note. Against Belgium, Monday evening at the Stade de France, the Tricolores won 4-1 after being behind. A meeting which changed in the last quarter of an hour, thanks to the contributions of newcomers Michael Olise, Désiré Doué and Rayan Cherki.
Present on the set of the show “Estelle Midi” the day after the match, Daniel Riolo confided that he had a great time during this France-Belgium. Incidentally, the RMC editorialist couldn’t help but make a tackle at Didier Deschamps, of whom he is not the biggest fan.
“Real refreshing to see the French team playing this way after fourteen years of deep boredom. Twenty minutes of this Zidane’s French team (in reference to the crazy end of the match against Belgium, editor’s note), that’s worth at least three matches with Deschamps because the boredom was so deep”launched Daniel Riolo.
Riolo on Deschamps: “All your life wanting to be ugly is hard”
“The audiences were feeling it, no one wanted to watch this French team anymore, he added.
There, the freshness it gives off makes you want it. We are happy, quite simply because sport is fun. We want to see teams that are fun, that amuse people, with attractiveness. It’s true that we were bored with Deschamps, we were at the end of the road. »
And put one layer back on “DD”: “There is still an element of injustice. Fourteen years of Deschamps being erased in two weeks with Zidane is a bit unfair. But at the same time he looked for it, because all his life wanting to be ugly is hard. This is water bearer syndrome. When you’ve been a man of the shadows all your life and you don’t know what the light is, it’s unfortunate to see that someone is so attracted to it. And Zidane is someone who attracts the light, while Deschamps is a man of the shadows. It’s sad and somehow unfair. » Remember that Didier Deschamps won the 2018 World Cup and the 2021 Nations League during his mandate.
