JAKARTA - The French national team suffered a crushing blow ahead of their inaugural match at the Qatar 2022 World Cup. The flagship striker, Karim Benzema, had to be dropped due to injury.
The Real Madrid player has pain in his left thigh. His thigh was exhausted and had to get treatment.
After passing the MRI at Doha hospital, Benzema had to undergo a three-week recovery. This forced the coach of the French national team, Didier Deschamps, to rack his brain.
With Benzema absent, and Christopher Nkunku also injured recently, now Deschamps relies on Kylian Mbappe, Antoine Griezzmann, and Olivier Giroud upfront.
Not only the front line is porous, Les Blues' midfield also has problems with the composition of players. Paul Pogba and N'Golo Kante were not taken due to injury.
However, Deschamps remains optimistic. "Despite this new blow, I have full trust in the team," said Deschamps, as reported by Live Score, Sunday, November 20.
"We will do everything we can to face the big challenges we have been waiting for," he continued.
Deschamps admits that he regrets Benzema's injury. According to him, the former Olympique Lyon player made the 2022 World Cup the main target.
"I am very sorry for Karim for making this World Cup his main goal," said Deschamps.
The French national team will start their campaign at the Qatar 2022 World Cup against Australia. After that, Les Blues will meet Denmark and Tunisia in Group D.
