After the 3-0 win, Deschamps confirmed: "Mbappé's ankle? He took a knock to the same ankle. The pain goes away when he rests. In a match, there's inevitably some contact. We'll see later.
"He's having some discomfort that's not ideal for him."
On the result, Deschamps added: "They're always tough games. We didn't have a fast ball circulation; they're fresh, with a low block. The only times we caused them problems was with our pace.
"We were a bit too slow in the first half. In games like these, you have to get things right from the start. This is another win, which means nine points."
