World Cup: Spain better than France in two areas – Rayan Cherki

France star, Rayan Cherki, has insisted that Spain were better than the Les Bleus in two areas.

Cherki stated this while reacting to France’s World Cup semi-final 2-0 defeat to Spain on Tuesday.

According to the Manchester City player, the La Roja were better than France in winning second balls and recovering possession.

DAILY POST reports that Mikel Oyarzabal and Pedro Porro scored the goals for Spain against France.

“I don’t think we lacked solutions. They were simply better than us when it came to winning second balls and recovering possession,” Cherki said via FIFA’s website.

“I think that is where the game was decided because if we had won more of those balls, we could have caused them a lot more problems.”
