But at the end of the morning, Noël Le Graët had swept away this hypothesis.

“There is no descent from the Champs-Elysées and the departure of the players is planned after landing, retorted the president of the FFF during an interview with BFMTV.

The players have been stuck for a while, they prefer to go home tonight.

They are very grateful to the public obviously, but it makes perfect sense to me.

Finally yes.

The exchanges between the police headquarters and the FFF, which had anticipated a possible descent from the Champs-Elysées in the event of a coronation, have evolved in recent hours to focus on a "simple" moment of celebration on the famous square of the French capital. .

It is not yet known where the Blues will position themselves to greet their audience.

In 2006, the French, beaten in the final by Italy, took their place on the balcony of the Hôtel du Crillon which overlooks the Place de la Concorde.
