Didier Deschamps, Coach of France’s national team has admitted that some French people are supporting Lionel Messi to win the 2022 World Cup with Argentina.
Addressing a press conference last night, Deschamps who is hoping to become the second coach in history to win the World Cup twice, said he and his team would do everything to achieve their objective.
He said;
“I know Argentina and maybe some French people would hope Lionel Messi can win the World Cup but we are going to do everything to achieve our objective.
“Most fans will probably support Argentina because they are Argentinian or will be rooting for that team.
“Argentinians are a very passionate people, they get behind their team and that is a positive thing, it is good to have an atmosphere like that in a World Cup final.
“But our opponents aren’t in the crowd, they are a team we face on the pitch and they are a good enough team to be worried about them.
“Both teams have the same objective and only one will come out with a third star.”
