France manager Zinedine Zidane has praised his squad after they secured a 4-1 comeback against Belgium in the Nations League.
Particularly brilliant was Michael Olise, whose entrance into the game, alongside Desire Doue and Rayan Cherki, helped Les Blues turn the game around in the final few minutes at the Stade de France.
Their brilliance helped France sit at the top og Group A1, and three points clear of Italy, who earned a 3-1 victory over Turkey on the same night.
"Tonight, this is soccer, this is what we love," Zidane said, as quoted by ESPN.
"We faced some difficulties in the first half, but that's part of the game, it's the kind of match you get from time to time. It's good to set things right - which is what we did - and we managed to play an extraordinary second half."
Olise echoed his manager's sentiments after his match-winning cameo, saying: "It's a collective effort, too. He [Zidane] brings in ideas, we follow them - we've done that well over the last four matches, we're going to continue like this."
