On June 22nd, in the second round of the European Cup group stage, France drew 0-0 with the Netherlands. Deschamps expressed his disappointment with the front line in an interview, and complained that the Dutch team had 30 hours more rest than his team.
“We weren’t efficient enough in front of goal, I’m disappointed about that. You have to score goals to win games. We’ll review this aspect when we get back, hopefully we can improve in the next game and successfully advance to the next round.”
“Overall, I’m still satisfied with the players’ performance. After all, compared to the Netherlands, we had 30 hours less rest, which is really unavoidable… We did our best.”
It is worth mentioning that in this game, France had 63% possession and 15 shots, but only 3 on target.
