Foxborough (Massachusetts, USA), 10 July (LaPresse) – “It’s a reflection of how we’ve played so far.” France manager Didier Deschamps is delighted with his players’ performance following their convincing 2–0 victory over Morocco in the World Cup quarter-finals. Behind the national team’s recent successes lies “having excellent players; the credit is all theirs. But perhaps I’m doing my job well,” he continued. “The only truth is what you see on the pitch.” The only sour note of the match was the early substitution of star player Kylian Mbappé, though his condition is not a cause for concern. “He has a slight twinge in his ankle, nothing serious,” Deschamps assured.
