DUESSELDORF, Germany : The following is reaction to France’s 1-0 victory over Austria in Euro 2024 Group D on Monday, with Max Wober scoring an own goal in the 38th minute.
France manager Didier Deschamps: “Happy with what the players did even if we missed opportunities to double the tally. It was not perfect but we were solid. We could have been more efficient offensively but it’s good to start with a win.
“There’s quality and talent but being solid and working together is also important. We’re not going to be over-confident, but it’s a good start.”
Deschamps on captain Kylian Mbappe’s suspected broken nose: “(His) nose is not good at all. Even if it’s just the nose, it’s the big negative point for us tonight.”
France midfielder and man of the match N’Golo Kante: “It starts well. Everything was not perfect but we have the result we wanted, this is a good start. There are solid foundations, we have to be more efficient.
“It makes me happy to be back. Things have changed, makes it feels good to get back into this jersey.”
