Deschamps dejected after stumbling at final hurdle

France coach Didier Deschamps did not hide his bitter disappointment after finding himself on the losing end of a final for a change on Sunday.

Deschamps, who knows all about winning title matches having captained France to its 1998 World Cup victory on home soil and the European Championship crown two years later, has never hidden the fact he hates losing.

"This is a big knock on the head," Deschamps said after Les Bleus' dream of another home triumph in a major tournament ended with a 1-0 loss in extra time to Portugal in the Euro 2016 final.
