Euro 2024, Adrien Rabiot extols Spain and reveals France’s extra weapons

Adrien Rabiot’s words ahead of Spain-France

On the eve of the first Euro 2024 semifinal that will see Spain and France pitted against each other, Blues midfielder Adrien Rabiot, among the various topics covered in the press conference, wanted to honor the Red Furies, but without losing confidence and trying to frame the main qualities of his own national team.

"I think unanimously we can say that Spain è the team that plays best in this tournament. It has possession of the ball and è is true to itself. They are complete, but like everyone they have strengths and weaknesses. We are confident, we know what to do. It's a national team that needs to move, I think the opponents have allowed them too much so far. Playing against France, forò forces you at least a little bit; to distort yourself, so we will see how they will adapt to our style of play" began the French midfielder.

"We have always praised the collective. We are in the semifinals of a great tournament thanks to our great team spirit and sacrifice. Griezmann and Mbappé are a little less polished, but we are here to support them and make them feel our complete confidence. They are two stars and thanks to their qualities they can unlock the situation at any moment. They are our extra weapons " added the Juventus player.

"For the coach è it is always complicated, because when he puts things in place so much information comes out. It's a bit unfortunate to see that when you finish training everything è already in the media. It's unfortunate for us and for everyone, because when these things come out, it gives directions to the opponents. The coach sometimes tries to hide the tracks. We, forò are players of the highest level and we have to be able to adapt to every system of play and situation" concluded Adrien Rabiot.
