He is a mythical and popular figure of French football. From the height of his 82 years, Guy Roux publishes Confidences (Talent Sport editions), a tasty book in which he tells a whole life devoted to the round ball, including forty years at the head of the Auxerre team. A book that will be available in a few weeks in Belgium.
The legendary coach in the cap takes the opportunity to preface the Euro which begins in a few days. Whoever went to thirteen World Cups and almost as many European Championships still remembers the last France – Belgium which marked the spirits at the 2018 World Cup. “I was very impressed by this Belgian team which was for me the best of the tournament. It was at that time better than the France team but the Blues had been more realistic. During this competition, France had played an excellent half-time in each match and that was enough ” , he analyzes.
And as part of the Euro which begins this Friday, Guy Roux is going about his prognosis.
“For this Euro, I see France even better with the return of Benzema so France has little advantage but it will be played between us and Belgium for the final victory. After that, there are some great teams who have progressed like the Italy, England or Portugal but advantage to the first two. ”
