Griezmann’s shocking review after France’s defeat

Antoine Griezmannplayer of Atletico Madrid, returned to the Spanish capital to join the rojiblanco team’s training sessions. The Frenchman played on Sunday night in his team’s second and final commitment, which against all odds, fell to Denmark (2-0) in Copenhagen. Croatia’s victory over Austria prevented Gallic relegation.

The red-and-white footballer was the starter even if he did not complete the match, since then Deschamps decided to replace him in the second half, and He added his ninth game without seeing the door with the ‘Bleus”. A streak that worried the neighboring country before the World Cup, but not the coach, who gave Griezmann the role of the free kick taker and corner taker and who, like today at Atlético, plays a little behind.

The Frenchman spoke after the match and reviewed what happened at the Parken Stadion. “We did the first 30 minutes where we played well, then we had big problems with corner kicks that we couldn’t solve at the time, and we conceded a goal that hurt us. We at the top, maybe we don’t have the confidence to come out from behind. We tried to sort things out at halftime, but we weren’t effective in both areas,” he said.

The surprising thing came later. With the nation gathering doubts less than two months before the start of the World Cup, Griezmann used his experience to calm the fans and find a positive aspect of the loss to Denmark.

“We won’t say it’s the fault of the changes. The history of the corners, regardless of the players, is in the mentality. But it was good for us before the World Cup. I’m not worried, we have the group and the coach to aim very high, it depends on us, that we work and put everything in motion for the World Cup”, he pointed out.
