We had to dust off the history books to find traces of such a big victory for the Blues. 28 years after its 10-0 victory against Azerbaijan in Auxerre, the French team signed the biggest success in its history this Saturday by inflicting 14 goals on Gibraltar. Aware at the break of the possibility of breaking the record (there was then 7-0), Didier Deschamps invited his players to maintain the same intensity upon returning from the locker room.
“There is a record, it’s 10 if you want guys (10-0 against Azerbaijan in 1995, a match in which Deschamps participated as a player). You can even explode it. Don’t hold back guys.” Challenge succeeded with 7 other goals scored after returning from the locker room.
