“The Boys Showed A Strong Character” - France Manager Didier Deschamps Praises His Team

France Manager Didier Deschamps has applauded his side's character in beating England 3-2 with 10 men in Paris. France saw Raphael Varane sent off in the second half, but Ousmane Dembele scored late on to hand Deschamps' side a friendly victory.
The 48-year-old admitted Varane's red card, which went to the VAR (video assistant referee) was harsh, but was proud of France's overall showing.

He said “It is always good to finish with a victory, especially after a defeat. We were down to 10 men, so hats off to the players, because that is a great England team. Today we had more legs than against Sweden. There are still some lessons to be learned. The task was made more complicated with the red, it seemed harsh. We created opportunities, and those who played showed good things.”
