France is not looking to their past for answers but rather
in their players and their game plan to produce the result they need in the
FIFA U20 Womens World Cup.
France will be taking on Korea DPR in the final match of the
tournament but their coach Gilles Eyquem is not concerned about their road to
the finals, but at how they can counter them in the game tomorrow.
Gilles is more concerned with Korea DPRs speed, ball control
and their Stamina during the match and towards extra time.
“I am not use to looking back to the past, how we won the
games to get here is different, Korea DPR is a different team a though team
that has very tactical players and a go forward game, we just have to adjust to
that,” Gilles said
Giles said both teams were tough but they would be really
looking into their line up to pick the best players to play in the final.
He said the knockout stages of the tournament have taken its
toll on the young women, as they played more than 90 minutes some nursing minor
injuries.
“It’s the final game and we will be looking to get our best
team on the field, both teams are not in the best physical state we played two tough games on Tuesday that led right
through to extra time, so we will choose wisely,”
Gilles added that the team was happy about their stay in
Papua New Guinea as they have seen the support for their team is overwhelming,
he said they were happy about the support, and added they would try to win the
game for their fans.
“Our stay in Papua New Guinea has been great so far, we have
had the chance of visiting our fans like at Koki yesterday I always see the
enthusiasm in their support, we just hope they turn out in numbers and we can
give them a win,” Gilles said
