Didier Deschamps will miss the French national team’s third group match at this World Cup. As the federation announced in a statement to the media, the national coach’s mother has passed away. He will now return to France for the funeral.

As a result, Deschamps will be absent for the match against Norway. Instead, his assistant coach Guy Stéphan will be on the touchline.
