The French television channel TF1 revealed on Tuesday the recording of the chat in the locker room of the French team, at half-time in the final against Argentina, which they ended up losing on penalties.

The coach Didier Deschamps, Mbappé, Varane, Griezmann and Mandanda are the stars of this part of the documentary

Thank you the Blues,

which honors the tournament held by France.

Said Deschamps: “We need more precision in passing, more precision in decisions.

You are not compact.

You have to be closer to each other.

You are not there!

You are not in any second ball!

You are not playing a World Cup final! ”, The coach exclaims to his players before hitting a table.

Then he lowers his tone, but not his discomfort: “Gentlemen, I am going to tell you without getting angry.

Do you know the difference in front of us?

I'm going to tell you.

That they play a final bitch and we don't!"

Deschamps appeared in the press room after the final with a bandage on his finger, explaining that he had hurt himself at half-time.

In the documentary you can see the moment in which he hits a table hard.

Mbappé, who scored three goals in the final and still missed out on the trophy, said: "We can't do worse!

It's a World Cup final!

It's a World Cup guys, it's the game of our lives!

We can't do worse than what we did,” he yelled at his teammates.

Argentina:



“It's the game of our lives.

This is only every 4 years.

We cannot do worse than in this first half.

We return to the pitch and we can come back”.



And boy did he try.

Winner mentality.

He tried to motivate them with another message: “Let's go back to the field and put a little intensity, we get into the duels and do something else guys.

It's a World Cup final!

We are losing by two goals.

We can go back!

Guys, this is something that only happens every four years,” he finished.

After Deschamps and Mbappé's harangues in the locker room, what happened is now history: France equalized the match based on faith (two goals in two minutes: in the 79th and in the 80th), forced extra time and not even there gave up.

When Argentina took the lead again on the scoreboard (minute 107), Mbappé came to the rescue again and his goal at minute 117 forced penalties.

In the round, the glory was, however, for Argentina.
