Have you prepared a specific plan to stop Lamine Yamal?
"No, there is no anti-Yamal plan. We are focusing on Spain as a whole, not on a single player. We know they are a dangerous team in every area of the pitch: in possession, in tight spaces near the box, in their combination play, and with their forwards. We need to focus above all on limiting their system, not just one player."
What are your feelings on the eve of the semi-final?
"We are focused and will prepare for the match in the best possible way. We are confident about the journey we've had so far, and it's right to feel that way, but always with the humility that has set us apart since the start of the competition. Now there's a place in the final at stake and we hope to go all the way."
Does France fear Spain?
"We fear no one. Considering the path we've taken, I think we come into this semi-final in the best possible shape. It would have been hard to arrive better prepared than this. The pitch will decide, but we've done everything we could to be ready."
What is the secret of this group?
"You can feel a real sense of unity. It's hard to explain why a certain chemistry develops, but off the pitch we get along very well together and I think that's one of the main reasons for our success.
"There have also been some tough moments for the coach that have brought us even closer. We also know that this will be his last tournament with the French national team, and that gives us extra motivation.
"All these factors make us feel that this is the right moment."
How important is direct communication among you players?
"Very. We've always tried to take responsibility. We communicate a lot, we talk often among ourselves, and during downtime at the hotel, we also analyse matches in small groups.
"The staff's contribution is fundamental, but there are also feelings that only we players can sense on the pitch. Since the start of the tournament, we feel like we speak the same language, have the same desire and the same goal. We're all pushing in the same direction and you can see that energy during the matches."
