France bid farewell to the European Championship with a defeat against Spain. The semi-final elimination was taken on by coach Didier Deschamps, who then tried to explain the reasons for the top four finish. According to him, the players were a bit tired.
- France crashed out at the EURU with Spain
- Coach Deschamps took responsibility
- The reason, according to him, is also the fatigue of the players after the season
The EURO is not as attractive compared to previous editions. Some of the leading national teams did not play very eye-catching football and among these teams is France, who waited until the semi-finals to score their first goal of the game.
Until then, it scored a goal from a penalty kick and relied on its opponent’s own goal. Kolo Muani opened the account against Spain, but then Yamal equalised with a beautiful shot and Olmo scored the winner for the Spanish.
France bids farewell to the tournament in the semi-finals, which is seen as a setback in the country. The criticism is justified, but it should be added that Spain are the best team in the tournament and are favourites to win it.
“I am the one who has to take responsibility, ” France coach Didier Deschamps, who will continue with the national team for at least another two years, told a news conference.
“We didn’t have all the offensive weapons at our disposal either, we had to adapt for various reasons. This pair did not play as well as usual or at 100% of their potential, as they have long seasons behind them and it was difficult for them to assert themselves,” he added.
“We played against a very good team. They confirmed all the potential they showed in the previous games. Against an opponent that controlled the game, we could have done some things better.
We fought until the end, but we also had our limits for different reasons. Itwas the sixth game, so maybe we had a little less energy,” the Frenchman concluded.
