France coach Didier Deschamps repeatedly lost his temper in the final match of the World Cup in Qatar yesterday, and his strange decision surprised everyone. After conceding 2 goals, he realized that facing an opponent like Argentina in the final match would not be easy.
Half-time of the match is still some time away. Didier sent off Olivia Giroud and Ousmane Dembele. They didn’t get much game time.
In a World Cup in Qatar, it is unprecedented to lose confidence in an in-form player before half-time. No coach has ever been so angry. But Didier did it.
Olivia Giroud was in-form and one of the best strikers at the World Cup in Qatar. Giroud’s brace came in handy when France fell behind in the first match against Australia.
Now let’s talk about Usmani Dembele. Dembele tried to give his best as a right winger at the World Cup in Qatar. No one can question his speed.
But Didier lost faith in them long before half-time. It was clear from her face that Didier was very angry. In the second half, he produced more surprises.
France was still 2-0 behind. Didier picked up Griezmann. But how great Griezmann played throughout the World Cup! Griezmann used to provide the ball to Mbappe and Giroud.
Argentina created some good chances late on. However, Argentina did not get a goal due to a mistake by Lautaro Martinez. Didier called one of the team’s defenders to the sideline and expressed his anger about why the defenders were not marking him.
It is clear that Didier is not at all satisfied with the performance of the French defenders. About 4 good players capable of taking penalties have already been removed. Those who entered the field later on only helped the team to get back to parity, that’s all.
