Deschamps: “We played a great game against a great opponent”

The French team beat Germany by the minimum in their debut in the Eurocup. Deschamps' men were a very solid team in all aspects and took advantage of an own goal from Hummels to take all three points. At a press conference, the French coach praised the efforts of his team.

“We played a great game against a great opponent. I know that my players were prepared, we were in everything, we fought … Although in the first half we had a little more stamina with the ball, we tried to score the second goal in the second half with little. We have not suffered so much in the second half. It was a tough game, of great quality and talent “

Furthermore, he added: “It is our first match, it could have been a final. For our group, having been able to take three points like these is important. We were at a great level, these victories are good for us ”. France will be a team in the round of 16 if they manage to beat Hungary on Saturday.
