It’s just happiness and pleasure. France also faces the prospect of losing two of its most powerful players with Aurelien Tchouameni and Jules Kounde booking away from suspension.
The Frenchman said they knew it. They have to be attentive, but the goal is very clear and it goes together. The French coach believes that there is a threat, but it does not matter. Deschamps also said about Kylian Mbappe that he thinks England will have their own plan against him and Mbappe will have to act decisively.
Les Bleus also has an abundance of pace on their team, with current tournament star Mbappe leading the pack. However, Didier is also quick to point out that England can also use speed to their advantage, despite neither side relying solely on pace.
