France were held to a draw by the Netherlands in the second round of the Euro group stage, and doubts are mounting about the current runners-up... and Didier Deschamps' decisions
Didier Deschamps goes back to be in the eye of the hurricane and will be many the criticisms that will receive in the next days, before the dispute of the third party of the phase of groups of the Eurocopa in front of a Poland that no longer plays at all. Of here to the Tuesday, will be many the debates on the performance of France in his first two presentations, in front of Austria (1-0) and Low Countries (0-0). They do not finish to start and 'show' why are one of the favourite selections to the title.
It is not something new, in any case. It has turned into something usual. It happened in the World-wide of Qatar 2022 and finished ready to carry the title. The true is that in this edition of the Eurocopa will have to step important advance and Deschamps is the first distinguished. Against the Dutch had the 'bad' fortune of the drop of Kylian Mbappé, the one who fell lesionado in the debut in front of Austria with a fracture in the nose.
The flamante signing of the Real Madrid remained in the bench and did not heat in any moment and 'noticed' his absence: Without his spark and capacity to change the parties in question of an instant, France suffers too much. Antoine Griezmann, Dembélé or Thuram were not sufficient. And it is a grave problem for Deschamps.
The odd case of Camavinga and the absence of Mendy
The problem, in any case, is that it did not change of pieces neither revolutionised to the team although they were suffering more than the account to launch to the attack. In the bench remained Eduardo Camavinga that it was important in the European debut and that helped to offer 'spark' in the centre of the field. Deschamps Has left clear that Rabiot is very by in front of him, even in the final minutes when it already was very 'touched'.
Ferland Mendy Also remained in the bench, although it would have been a good option to brake to a Frimpong that, especially in the first part, did a lot damage by the left. The one who himself played the ninety minutes was Aurelien Tchouameni that has returned of his injury, after a month and half, in good conditions. It was very attentive in the coverages and showed a very reliable version, by what will be very common to see him in the double pivote with N'Golo Kanté.
