Belgium is set to face France in the Round of 16 of the European Championship, and rumors have surfaced suggesting that France will adopt a 4-4-2 formation in the game. Belgium coach Domenico Tedesco responded to these rumors in his press conference.
Reports indicate that France has been practicing a 4-4-2 formation in recent training sessions, with Kylian Mbappé and Khéphren Thuram leading the attack as a duo.
Tedesco commented on this, saying: “I know they last used this formation in 2021. It’s a good sign for us, when a team wants to adapt to our style of play, it means we are doing something right.”
“Of course, it could also be a tactical adjustment and a change in their game plan. Regardless of who plays and what tactical approach they use, I think we all agree that this French team is incredibly strong.”
Tedesco continued, “Every coach has a clear plan, and we do as well. In games like this, you need to adapt quickly and be aware of more things. There can’t be just one game plan, otherwise it would be too simple. We need to prepare multiple plans and have strong adaptability.”
Additionally, addressing the injury status of full-back Thomas Meunier, Tedesco confirmed that he won’t be available for this match: “Meunier needs two more days of individual training before he can rejoin group training.”
