Euro: a huge fiasco for the Blues irrelevant

2021-06-29T15:18:16.292Z


MOOD - Released from the knockout stages of Euro Monday night in Bucharest, the France team signed one of its worst campaigns at Euro 2020.


All that for that ... It was fashionable to announce, for weeks and to whoever wanted to hear it, that this France team was the best in Europe and even in the world, to ultimately take the feet in the mat against Switzerland (3-3 ap, 5-4 tab), 13th nation in the world and unable to beat the Blues in international competition throughout its history and now qualified for the quarter-finals of the Euro. This Tuesday morning, after a fatal evening in the Romanian capital, Didier Deschamps' band has only its eyes to cry on. Before returning, head down and somewhat ashamed, Paris on the sly during the day, with no one to wait for him on the tarmac. The victorious are glorified and the losers booed. A situation that contrasts with the coronation in Russia, three years ago,and the splendor experienced at the time, between descent from the Champs-Élysées, reception at the Élysée and a summer celebrating the second star.
