Deschamps is already looking ahead to the duel with the Duivels: “We have to be fully motivated”
French national coach Didier Deschamps said in a video released by the French Football Federation on Wednesday that his players “will have to be at their best” when they face Belgium in the round of 16 of the European Football Championship in Germany on Monday. “We will have to be fully motivated,” Deschamps continued.
According to the French national coach, Belgium is “one of the big teams” in the tournament. “It was close in the Belgian group, the teams all finished on four points. We know Belgium well, of course. It will be a tough eighth final, which will also apply to the Belgians. We followed the Belgians during their three group matches, with the last match against Ukraine. They still have a lot of individual talent, especially up front with (Kevin) De Bruyne, (Romelu) Lukaku, (Jeremy) Doku and (Leandro) Trossard. They finished second in their group, which means that they have had some problems. But they remain a very good team that has the ambition to go far.”
