Off draw with Iceland, Deschamps: All points are important, this one is also decisive, the next training camp is decisive

October 14th: In this round of World Cup preliminaries, France tied with Iceland 2-2. After the game, France coach Deschamps expressed dissatisfaction with the team's defensive attitude when they were tied with Iceland.

Regarding the poor performance in the first half against Azerbaijan and Iceland

"I can’t explain everything. Facing a dense defense is the most difficult situation. We lacked impact. Although this cannot be used as an excuse, the lineup is indeed different. Through By giving playing time, other players can also be examined. "

About Iceland's equalization immediately after France's goal

"This will happen, but it shouldn't happen to us because we may still be celebrating the goal because of the wrong positioning. It is unacceptable for the ball carrier to form a trap and for the opponent to penetrate the defense from such a high position. Our defense must have been pushed too far forward. "

About the reason why the defensive line was tense

"Nervous, we shouldn't have conceded this goal, after all, the opponent had no chance. Two shots on target, two goals. That's the opposite of what happened when they faced Ukraine on Friday. The second goal conceded was a defensive error on our part, but the opponent did not create a real threat. "

Summary of this training

" We got four points and that was it. If we could win every game, we would have won it already. Although many players are absent, the players who played have fulfilled their due responsibilities. Yes, we did not get 6 points, but 4 points. The next training camp will be decisive. "

Is this 1 point still valuable

"All points are important. This 1 point against Iceland is obviously the same. But I knew before the game that the next training camp would be decisive. "

Do you think a draw hinders the promotion process

"But if you expect us to ensure promotion in the first training camp, that's impossible. We still have two games and we must respect our opponents. After 4 games we got 10 of the 12 points. "

How to evaluate Akli Usher's performance

"He has gotten more playing time, and through this training camp, he has become more calm. He has technical qualities and a somewhat introverted personality. This requires time and repeated training. Now he has become more relaxed. This is normal. Some players just need time. "
