After scoring a brace against Colombia, Désiré Doué enjoyed a special moment with the French national team, balancing personal pride with collective satisfaction.
In his sixth cap, the PSG attacking midfielder made a strong impression by netting his first two goals for France. It was a standout performance for the young Parisian, who did not hide his emotions after the match: “A lot of pride, I’m very happy. It’s a great victory, it wasn’t easy, there was a lot of intensity.”
Strong Team Momentum Ahead of the World Cup
Beyond his individual performance, Doué emphasized the collective momentum of the French team, who secured two convincing wins ahead of the World Cup.
“Have I gained points? Yes…” Listening carefully to Didier Deschamps’ instructions, the Rennes academy product intends to keep building on this momentum: “We played two good preparation matches before this World Cup, we’re very happy. The coach told us it was important to win today. That’s what we did. We showed intensity and did many good things—we need to keep it up. Have I gained points? Yes, it happens naturally. I try to help the team in every game, and today I’m being rewarded.”
