In the qualifying round of World Football Championship 2014, Didier Deschamps, head coach of French team, announced at the press conference before the match against Belarus, that his team should play more effectively in defense than they did in the match against Georgia.
- After playing draw with Georgia, on what you concentrated more? On training process or on what you have not done well?
- We do not need to clear up something. Of course, the result was not satisfying. But players should think about the next match and not about what they have done bad.
- Besides the effective end of the attacks, what are you waiting from your apprentices?
- In my opinion, the most important is to end the attacks. I wish my players to act more intensively at the goal of opponents.
- Are you waiting more effective playing against Belarus?
- It’s a matter of course. We had 7 scoring moments against Georgia, but we could not use it. My apprenticeship should be motivated, because they play in the team of France.
- Recently there have been a lot of negative things written in the media about the French national team. What do you think about this?
- I agree, that there were written many negative things about the unsuccessful match of the team. Everyone has a right to criticize, but it did not affect on my decision.
