“You know how to handle the pressure, you have been there, but they have new players and it will be new for them.

“It might be the first time some of them have played against Lionel Messi as well. The pressure will be there.

“This France team is very, very competitive, especially with Didier Deschamps as their manager. They want to win it back to back.”
