"We respect all our opponents. Azerbaijani football players have a national spirit thanks to the result they achieved in the last home match with Ukraine (1:1). They have nothing to lose. They will show all their strength on the field," said the head coach of the French football team, Didier Deschamps, at a press conference organized before the match against the Azerbaijani national team in Paris in the qualifying round of the 2026 World Cup, APA reports.
He emphasized that their goal is to win: "We should not go out on the field with the thought of 'we will win 100 percent'. We respect all our opponents. The Azerbaijani national team had a national spirit thanks to the result it won in the home match with Ukraine (1:1). The players will give their full strength on the field this time too. Moreover, the opponent's squad includes 7 players from "Qarabag", which made a successful start in the Champions League. The opposing team will try to defend as well as possible. Right now, we are only thinking about tomorrow's match. Because everything can change against us on the field".
Note that the France - Azerbaijan match will start on October 10 at the Parc des Princes stadium, at 22:45 Baku time.
