Didier Deschamps neither confirms nor denies farewell

Didier Deschamps’ words.

Didier Deschamps did not hide his disappointment over the defeat in the World Cup final: “All this creates even more regret, if we had cashed in 3-0 there would have been nothing to say. We didn’t do the right things for an hour. Later, with a lot of courage, energy and quality, we pushed Argentina to the limit. We didn’t do everything right, but as always in this World Cup, there was heart and energy. When we touch something and it gets away from us, it is even harder to digest. But that’s the way it is, and you have to accept it.”

“The disappointment is a lot, there are some positive things but when you don’t find the grail after being close, it hurts. It will take time to digest this defeat.”

“What am I going to do? Even if it had gone well I would not have the answer, France is above everything. I will see the federal president in early 2023 as planned. I don’t want to talk about that tonight.”
