France coach Didier Deschamps believes Gareth Southgate is underappreciated in England as he hailed his counterpart ahead of their World Cup quarter-final clash.
Date published: Friday 9th December 2022 10:56 -
While Deschamps has been lauded for taking France to the title in Russia four years ago, Southgate came under scrutiny in the lead-up to the finals in Qatar after a winless run of six games saw England suffer Nations League relegation. “Not everyone appreciates him so much in his own country, that isn’t because he wasn’t a good footballer himself – he had a long and distinguished career and he is also a very good coach.Most of the talk in the build-up to the fixture has surrounded Kylian Mbappe, the Paris St Germain forward who has already scored five goals in Qatar to lead the race for the Golden Boot.
“I’m sure England will have prepared to face Kylian, as our previous opponents did,” added the one-time Chelsea midfielder.
