Deschamps: “VAR didn’t want to judge Laos because it was his last match”

Voles Deschamps for France-Greece refereeing. The 54-year-old complained about VAR, stressing that he did not want to judge Laos because it was his last match.

What Didier Deschamps said in detail on the Equipe channel:

– the match: “I am satisfied with the team. There is power emerging. There are things to improve, but we are on target. The month of June is always complicated. Our only regret is our accuracy.. We could have scored more in these two matches».

– Matthew Laoth: “He is a gentleman. The VAR people didn’t want to judge him because it was his last match. I saw the pictures again and… (takes a breath). It had no effect on the outcome, but it could have been a different outcome. But I have great respect for Laoth».

At the same time, on the French network (TF1) about the decisions of Laos, he said, among other things, that: I’ve seen penalties whistled for less than that (that weren’t given)».

– whether his team is dependent on Mbappe’s goals: “The strikers are there to score but if all the strikers score as much as Kylian we will win every game 10-0. They can score more and gain efficiency, yes. But they are in different registers, especially Koman and Dembele. Giroud didn’t score a goal in the 2018 World Cup but we won».
