SOT, Didier Deschamps, French football team coach (French): "We weren't as effective as we should've been considering the number of opportunities we had. They had a couple, the free-kick was very well done, they're very dangerous in those phases of the game. They took advantage of that to even the score, but whether it was in the first of the second half, there was a great goalie across the field from us. But hey, it is what it is, either way, I'm satisfied with what we did, we knew [Turkey] would be a tough opponent. In the away game there was no contest, tonight was closer, we did what we could, but without the result, we were hoping for. Now we're neck and neck with one extra point overall, and there are only two matches left."

Didier Deschamps, the French squad's coach, said he was satisfied with his team's efforts in a post-game presser in Paris on Monday after France and Turkey tied 1-1 in a Euro 2020 qualifier match at the Stade de France.
"I'm satisfied with what we did, we knew [Turkey] would be a tough opponent. In the away game there was no contest, tonight was closer, we did what we could, but without the result, we were hoping for," he said.
Turkey beat France 2-0 in June, in what Deschamps previously described as being "outclassed" by the Turkish squad.
Euro 2020 will take place in 12 host cities across Europe from June 12 to July 12, 2020.
