00:00 A defense in the slums, a quest for number 9 still unsatisfied, a team lacking leaders without Griezmann and a group that speaks the language, the Blues, considered the big favorites of Elbe Euro in 2024, fell short on Saturday against Germany in friendly, 2-0.
00:14 And Didier Deschamps was able to measure the extent of the construction site that awaits him.
00:17 A defense to stabilize.
00:19 The defensive sector is undoubtedly the one that must worry the most the selector in the last straight line leading to the European Championship, June 14 to July 14.
00:29 Deschamps, who thought he had found, with the duo Konat and Upamecano, a new central link after the World Cup 2022 and Rafael Varane's international retirement, failed to align his two players side by side more than three times in 12 games due to injuries.
00:43 This instability is undoubtedly not foreign to the defensive porosity of the French, who managed to keep their cage unviolated only once in six games, against Gibraltar's modest team, crushed 14-0 in November.
00:56 A number 9 to find.
00:59 Nearly a year and a half after the lost World Cup final, Deschamps is still looking for a forward capable of doing the unanimity.
01:06 Desiring to gently turn the page Olivier Giroud, the boss of the Blues had intronized Randall Colomus animated the Parisian to quickly show his limits at the highest level.
01:15 Marcus Thuram, who is having a good first season at Inter Milan, seemed to be able to ensure the relay but his performance against Germany did not allow him to score points and kill the match.
01:26 In these conditions, it is the unusable and eternal Olivier Giroud who, at 37, sees his quota go up and remains the last resort.
01:33 Unlike his two competitors, the attacker of AC Milan does not really have a problem with efficiency and masters the position of number 9 to perfection.
01:41 It remains a question of age and difficulty for the veteran to hold the shock physically for 90 minutes and to chain high-intensity encounters.
01:49 A head-breaker in perspective for Deschamps.
01:52 A leader to recover.
01:55 The absence of Antoine Griezmann, Chouchou and Talisman de Deschamps has cruelly jumped to the eye on Saturday.
02:00 After nearly seven years of uninterrupted presence under the jersey of the French team, the player of Atletico Madrid, injured, had to give up this meeting.
02:09 Without the 2018 World Champion, the Blues seemed lost in the intermission and no one sounded the revolt to try to reverse the trend.
02:17 The inability of the French to find a replacement boss without Griezmann is quite problematic in the context of the Euro.
02:24 "We know Antoine is an exceptional player. He manages to make the link between defence, midfield and above all attack, we missed him."
02:31 "A player of Antoine's quality does not replace himself so easily," said Aurelien Chouameni.
