French coach Didier Deschamps acknowledged his team's inferiority in strength and aggression in the 0-2 defeat to Germany in Lyon. Deschamps admitted that the French national team was not "at the level of high-level game that the Germans set" in the friendly match.

The French coach highlighted that the goal conceded 7 seconds into the start of the match was a psychological blow for his players, from which they struggled to recover. Deschamps noted that it took them a quarter of an hour to come to terms with it and lamented the lack of collective strength and aggression in the game.

Despite the absence of the injured Antoine Griezmann, Deschamps avoided attributing the team's poor performance to the absence of a single player. Additionally, he praised the performance of goalkeeper Brice Samba, who replaced the injured Maignan and made several important saves that prevented a more emphatic defeat for France."
