France is intensively following the preparations for tomorrow's big final against Argentina. The match which will start at 16:00 will be the crowning of a special event.

Coach Didier Deschamps spoke today in the statement before the match, where he avoided answers about the condition of the players. The French coach has also appeared irritated at questions about Benzema's situation.

The state of the players, the "virus" : "The players were sleeping when I left, so I don't have the latest information. We are trying to manage as best we can and calmly. There will be new data today. I will have the right information tonight for tomorrow to ensure that we are ready for this big final".

Anxiety before the final: “There are inappropriate situations, situations that you have to adapt to. We did everything possible to be as good as possible in tomorrow's game against Argentina. They also had to face certain situations. The fact that they lost the first game against Saudi Arabia... I have no worries or stress. Important in preparing for a match like this is to stay calm. In a World Cup final, it is the match, but also the context, which is special. But I know that the Argentinians, and maybe even some French people, would also like to see Messi win the title."

Benzema: “Nëse nuk përgjigjem, do të thoni se jam i zemëruar. Kam lojtarë që janë lënduar më parë. Karim është njëri prej tyre. I fundit që u lëndua ishte Lucas Hernández. Që atëherë, kam 24 lojtarë për të menaxhuar. Parashtrimi i pyetjes për këta lojtarë është, për të thënë të paktën, pak i vështirë. Grupi është këtu. Nuk shqetësohem për ftesat e lojtarëve, ish-lojtarëve apo lojtarëve të dëmtuar dhe as nuk merrem me to. Ne kishim një grup në fillim dhe për shkak të asaj që ndodhi… Ne humbëm tre prej tyre, me Nkunkun në fillim. Ata ishin pjesë e fillimit të aventurës. Nesër do të jemi 24”.

The future: "The French team is the best thing that has happened to me in my life. Already as a player. And I have the privilege of seeing him as a coach. It's passion, very high level. I am very happy in this position. The most important thing was sometimes me, but the team. It is above all, I am at your service and I am still there for tomorrow's game. But I'm not the most important thing. The only thing on my mind is tomorrow's match".
