Lucas Chevalier (keeper of the France hopeful team, beaten by Ukraine 3-1 in the quarter-finals of the Euro U21): “I am disappointed because there was room. It was ‘one-shot’, where you have to be good at the right time. There were facts about matches where things weren’t working out for us: Bradley’s post (Barcola) at 1-1, the penalty, the 2nd goal we conceded just before half-time on an alignment error , our offside goal: there was nothing for us. We are very talented, but there are certain points where we sin and we cannot compensate. Given the situation in their country, perhaps they were more angry than us. It was a fighting team. We were too, but perhaps less than them.
