France coach, Didier Deschamps, has put Morocco among the best teams at the World Cup.

Deschamps spoke at his pre-match press conference ahead of France’s World Cup quarter-final clash with Morocco on Thursday.

He insisted that the North Africans are not at the World Cup by accident after they made it to the last-8.

“The higher you climb the mountain, the greater the challenge becomes,” Deschamps said.

“Morocco aren’t here by accident. They’re among the very best teams in this tournament.

“It will be a clash between two nations who want the ball, look to attack and score goals.”
