Platini finally asked: "What are your requirements? Don't tell me, you want to let him leave this position. No one can afford the responsibility of changing coaches in the last battle."

Zidane said with a serious expression: "We know this. We don't have many requests, and some things should be discussed with us in advance in the future."

"Okay!" said Platini: "I am responsible for solving his work. Prepare it. After half a small time, we will hold a meeting and all the team members will participate."

...

While Platini was communicating with the players, K Simo was talking to Domeneck. After Domeneck finished telling the reason and the matter, the room became quiet.

Ke Simo shook his head and said, "You are still too stubborn. These are his last few games. You should put down your posture and communicate with him more in everything. Now this French team cannot do without him, and you know that."

"Don's problem is a small problem. He is still very young, and this child values ​​feelings and is easy to communicate. Regarding the team leader, I think you told him too early. He should only give him a briefing after the World Cup. He is currently the best young player in France, and I also like him."

Domeneke's eyes were filled with a brilliant appearance. He thought that after this incident, the end of the World Cup was when he left the French coach. But from Ke Simo's words, he could hear that the Football Association had no meaning in this regard and he could still stay.

"Not to mention me, many people are optimistic about his future. Platini communicated with me last night, believing that in the next ten years, he will determine the height of French football. I was very shocked at the time and did not expect that he would have such a high evaluation of Don. Back then, he did not have such a high evaluation of Zidane."

Ke Simo began to talk about Tang Juelai. Perhaps he thought that the matter between Domeneke and Zidane was nothing, but a dispute over the right to speak. If we start from the team's performance and solve this problem, it would be difficult. After all, everyone wants to achieve good results in the World Cup.

At this time Platini pushed the door open and the two stood up and hugged him. After the three of them sat down, Platini told Zidane's request. He looked at Domeneke and said, "What is needed now is unity. Countless examples prove that without unity, there will be no good results. Zidane understands this, so his request is not excessive, you should accept it."

Platini's words were very tough. This was a different tone when communicating with the players. Domeneck knew that Platini's impression of him had never been very good. When he was in charge of the coach's seal, Platini had expressed opposition.

When it comes to the heavyweights in French football, the most important thing now is Platini. Some media once said that it was Platini who raised the French team from second-rate Europe to first-rate Europe. Jake and Zidane promoted the French team from first-rate Europe to strong world teams.

This French midfielder star, who once enjoyed great honors in European football, is now running for UEFA president. His influence on French football is unsubstitutable.

Ke Simo nodded and said, "What Mr. Platini said makes sense. You should give up your stubbornness and communicate more with him. Your purpose is the same, all for the team to achieve good results. So far, our Football Association is still very supportive of you."

Domeneck heard the voice of Ke Simo, and the situation was so urgent. He had to say, "Okay! I will maintain good communication with him in the future."

Platini patted Domeneck on the shoulder and shook his head and said, "If you are still in this position in the future, the headaches are still waiting for you. Now you only need to make a good relationship with Zidane. Zidane can help you get everything done."

"After he stepped back, your troubles have just begun. Vieira and Don are already fighting now. Who do you want to choose? There is a problem with which one you choose."

When it comes to this matter, Domeneck just poured out his ideas. Without this opportunity, he would not have had the opportunity to ask these two people how to deal with the post-Zidane era. Two years ago, the leader of the post-Zidane era was very sure, either Vieira or Henry.

Even if Vieira is the leader of the team, according to Henry's character, he is unlikely to cause a lot of storms. The French team can successfully solve the problem of successors in the locker room. Now it's different. Tang Jue emerged and made things change. Tang Jue's stunning and strong performance has a tendency to replace Vieira. And he has already shown in front of the players that he is interested in competing for that position.

On the contrary, Henry now shows signs of fading out. Vieira and Tang Jue are both powerful characters, and no one is willing to take a step back. Is there a way to make these two live in harmony? Obviously this is impossible.

That is to say, among these two people, a choice must be made, otherwise the French team will fall into an infighting. The main thing to choose is to consider short-term effects or long-term effects. If you want a smooth transition, Vieira is the best candidate, and if you want to consider the long-term, Tang Jue is the best choice.

The three people talked about the future of French football for a long time, and it was not until Marklele knocked on their door that it was temporarily over. After the team meeting, they had a long discussion and finally decided on the plan.

The team meeting went smoothly, and Domeneck finally hugged Zidane in front of all the players. Zidane stated: For the common interests of everyone, he will no longer make any words in the locker room that are not conducive to the head coach's authority in the future.

Domenek stated: If there are major events in the future, they will definitely discuss with the team's core.

A crisis was resolved under the mediation of two of the most important figures in French football. The French team got back on track and they began to prepare for the knockout round.

...

At 4:00 pm on June 19, Switzerland defeated Togo 2-0. They scored three points with the South Korean team and ranked second in the group with the advantage of goal difference. The second place in Group G will be generated in the showdown between them. The Swiss team only needs to tie to qualify, while the South Korean team needs to defeat the Swiss team to qualify from the group.

In the two H-group matches held in the evening, Ukraine defeated Saudi Arabia 4-0, and Spain defeated Tunisia 3-1. Spain, which won all two games, was undisputedly the first to qualify from the group.

With the end of the match between Spain and Tunisia, the second round of the group stage was over, and all the powerful men basically won two consecutive victories and successfully advanced from the group. They focused on the knockout stage.

The last round of the group started on June 20. In order to avoid cheating, two games in the same group were held at the same time. At 4 pm on the 20th, two games in Group A were the first to start, Germany defeated Ecuador 3-0, and Poland defeated Costalia 2-1.

In fact, the two teams that entered the quarterfinals of 16 in Group A were already produced at the end of the second round. Germany and Ecuador won both games and were already the first to qualify. Germany and Ecuador's third round of matches were just to determine who would be the first in the group.

For those groups that have not yet been completely determined to qualify for the team, the last round of group matches is quite important. All kinds of rumors are flying everywhere, and there are even rumors of secret transactions.

...

The third game of the French team was arranged at the Rhine Energy Stadium in Cologne. Their last opponent was Togo. At 11:00 noon on the 21st, the French team flew to Cologne, and the wife team then arrived.

At 1:00 noon, the French team and his group appeared from the airport passage. The reporters outside the fence began to surge. The French team was entangled with negative information these days. In the past few days, the French team has been busy resolving internal conflicts and has no time to accept media interviews. This has further increased media speculation: the French team has many conflicts.

Looking at the surging reporters, Domeneck knew that he should speak to the media. He signaled that Zidane and Tang Jue should also be interviewed by the media. The three left the large army and walked towards the fence.

There were many reporters around the three of them. Domeneck said to the media: "I know that many media have been speculating about what problems the French team has had in the past two days. I can tell you responsibly that the French team has no problems and we are united as always."

BBC reporter asked: "Kesimo and Platini rushed to Leipzig on the evening of the 18th. What are they doing? Isn't they mediating the conflict?"

Domeneck said without blushing, "I said that our team has no conflicts. Regarding mediation, those are speculations from some media with ulterior motives. Mr. Ksemo and Mr. Platini came to Leipzig to congratulate the team on qualifying in advance, and they also came to encourage the team."

"We are now nervously preparing for the last game of the group."

Afterwards, many media criticized Domeneck's words, believing that nothing he said was the truth. Especially the last sentence, the French team had already qualified from the group, and there was no need for them to carefully prepare for the game against Togo.

Zidane said to the media: "Our team has now entered a good preparation. Regarding the conflict between me and the coach, those are just speculations and we have a good relationship."

A reporter from Marca asked: "Many people think that the French team has always been full of contradictions, and we also feel it from some details. Why don't you admit it?"

Zidane shook his head and said, "There are only differences and no contradictions between me and the coach. We will have different views on the game, but we will be able to communicate quickly and understand each other."

The reporters asked the same question to Tang Jue, who said: "Contradictions can be seen everywhere. No team in the world can be without any contradictions. Everyone has different demands, but they cannot meet everyone's demands. This is the contradictions of the team. Therefore, the situation of the French team is the same as that of other teams."

"We find common ground in contradictions and move forward together."

"Only with conflicts can there be motivation. We are ready for the next game!"
