France winger Ousmane Dembele said the impending departure of manager Didier Deschamps is not a distraction for the squad heading into the FIFA World Cup, but is more of a motivator for the team to finish his reign on a high note.

Scotland boss Steve Clarke insists he has "fantastic problems" ahead of the World Cup opener against Haiti after a thumping 4-0 friendly win over Bolivia in New Jersey.

United States coach Mauricio Pochettino said he could finally feel the excitement he expected to see from the American fanbase during his team's 2-1 loss to Germany on Saturday at Soldier Field -- its final game before the start of the World Cup.
