Doha, December 18 (QNA) - France coach Didier Deschamps hailed the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 as a record-breaking tournament and said that his side lacked enthusiasm to win the title.

Speaking at the after-match press conference, Deschamps said that his side exercised an early pressing in the final match, but some of his key players were not in their best physical condition, and lacked energy.

So Argentina was the best in the first half, and capitalized on the opportunities they had and scored two goals, he said.

After making some substitutions and tactical changes, France were able to recover from two goals down; they also wasted an opportunity to win the match at the end of the extra time, he said. (QNA)
