France is going for a hat-trick of major titles on home territory at Euro 2016 and has a kind draw, but coach Didier Deschamps is seeking to douse national expectations.
Looking to add to its 1984 European Championship and 1998 World Cup titles, France will face Switzerland, Romania and an Albania side appearing at its first major finals in Group A.
But as anticipation builds ahead of Les Bleus' opening game against Romania on Friday, Deschamps - who lifted the World Cup as a player 18 years ago - knows his team still has to take care of business on the pitch.
