Didier Deschamps Says 'Wise Decision' To Keep Kylian Mbappe On Bench
Didier Deschamps said it was not worth the risk to rush Kylian Mbappe back for Friday's 0-0 draw against the Netherlands just days after he suffered a broken nose. Mbappe watched on from the bench as some wasteful finishing from Les Bleus meant they failed to guarantee their place in the last 16 of Euro 2024 with a game to spare. Deschamps conceded his decision may have been different for a knockout match, but is hopeful Mbappe can return for Tuesday's final group game against Poland.
