The French national football team has scored 14 goals in the World Cup, the highest tally in the tournament so far, but coach Didier Deschamps urged his players on Wednesday to improve their attacking efficiency against Morocco in the quarter-finals on Thursday. The match renews the rivalry between the two teams who met before the 2022 World Cup final in Qatar, when France ended Morocco's historic run in the tournament. However, this time Morocco is no longer just a surprise package but a confident team aiming to win the title. 'We need to be efficient in attack. Both teams have strengths in all areas,' Deschamps said in a press conference. 'We are efficient, but we can do better in this aspect. Sometimes you get six chances and score two goals, sometimes two chances and score two. The important thing is to be effective.' France narrowly beat Paraguay in the Round of 16, winning 1-0 thanks to a penalty converted by Kylian Mbappé. The French captain has scored seven goals so far in the tournament, second in the scoring charts behind Argentina's Lionel Messi who has eight goals. Mbappé, Ousmane Dembélé, Michael Olise and Bradley Barcola form one of the most dangerous attacking lines in the World Cup. Morocco sailed through the group stage without much trouble, then defeated the Netherlands and Canada, who co-host the tournament, cementing their status as a genuine title contender. 'Morocco is different from Paraguay. We faced them four years ago in the semi-finals. They reached the Africa Cup of Nations final. They have top-class players. They are not here just to play; they are here to win. We have to be ready and deliver a good performance to get the desired result against this great team,' Deschamps said. The French coach will have to wait to see if midfielder Aurélien Tchouaméni, who has a muscle injury, will be fit in time for the match. 'He feels better, but I left the hotel early in the morning. I can't say more. He might train today. The rest of the players are all available,' he said. Regarding France's request to have the yellow card given to Olise in the Paraguay match rescinded, he said FIFA informed them the caution stands. This decision comes after the controversy sparked by FIFA's decision to suspend the one-match ban for American player Folarin Balogun after a red card, following intervention by US President Donald Trump.
