The France coach is disappointed with Les Bleus’ defeat at the hands of Japan on Saturday and believes that his side lacked cutting edge against the Asian champions
The 43-year-old is unimpressed by his side’s performance against the Samurai Blue at Stade de France.
Les Bleus were defeated 1-0 at their own backyard by Japan at the weekend, thanks to a brilliant goal by Manchester United’s Shinji Kagawa.
And coach, Didier Deschamps feels that the hosts were the better side on the pitch but their poor finishing let them down. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/France-c2899 created a number of goalscoring opportunities in the game but failed to capitalise on that, and were punished for that in the
end.
Talking to media after his side’s defeat on Saturday, the former Marseille coach stated that France played with the right attitude and their intentions were to win the game. However, Les Bleus failed to find the back of the net and that is a worrying factor
for the coach.
“Our intentions were clear but the negative from tonight was that we didn't take our chances.”
On a question regarding France’s next game against Spain, Deschamps said that La Roja are the best team in the world and Les Bleus won’t get many chances against them.
The coach has urged his players to forget about the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Japan-c2928 game and focus on their upcoming World Cup qualifier against the reigning World and European champions.
“I don't think we'll have as many chances against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011 [in their World Cup qualifier on Tuesday]. We'll have to find our cutting edge and defend well."
The only goal-scorer of the match, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Shinji-Kagawa-c33364, has expressed his delight at Japan’s victory against Didier Deschamps side. The midfielder believes that Samurai Blue are capable of defeating any team on their day but added that they need to improve a lot
to be more consistent in the future.
"I managed to score a pretty stylish goal tonight, but we need to keep working even harder to bring ourselves to the same level as the big international teams.”
“We have every reason for confidence, we can certainly do it. We need to improve collectively and individually, because we often found ourselves in dangerous situations."
