In the fifth round of Group D of the European Group Stage of the World Cup Qualifiers, the French team defeated the Ukrainian team 4-0 at home and advanced to the World Cup. French coach Deschamps attended the press conference after the game.

Now we can enjoy the moment of promotion

"Of course I enjoy it. We set this goal and now we have achieved it. I understand that everyone will take it for granted that we advance, but we do face strong opponents. I, the entire coaching staff, and the team feel very Very proud. Don't take it for granted. I'm not an emotional person - maybe a little more so in life - but as a player I never had the opportunity to go to America and play in the World Cup. That's part of life: you can't win everything. Everything."

Talk about this World Cup

"This is a new competition system, with more teams and one more game, and the situation there will be more complicated. Our coaching staff has thought about it a lot, and we will get a preliminary answer on December 5, but of course we have to be ambitious. We have to take it step by step and face special climate conditions. We need to consider the game time and the recovery time between matches...but we will go into the game with ambition."

A year ago, you expressed your hope to inject new blood into this team. Have you found the core framework now?

"Some players got playing time, which is important. There were a lot of injured players in this training camp, maybe too many, although it also gave me the opportunity to look at other players. But it also prevented me from practicing as much as I would have liked. If everyone can be in place, this is also My biggest wish. But it will be difficult to inject new blood into the team, especially in the face of the challenges we are facing. Mbappe? He has fully assumed the role of captain."source:7m cn com
