Opinion shared by Didier Deschamps, happy to be able to count on such a doorman as a successor to Hugo Lloris.

A real luxury.

And above all a fabulous chance for the Blues.

It's an exceptional stop.

I'm not surprised because I know what Mike is capable of,

points out the coach.

He has all the qualities, the stature and the mind because he is a leader.

Through the penalties he saved, but especially that shot which is worth more than the penalty (stopped against the Netherlands)… I had no doubts or uncertainty about his transfer of power with Hugo (Lloris).

When he's in full possession of his means, it's at a very high level.
