At Zidane's postgame news conference, the still relatively inexperienced head coach was asked to analyse why his team had been able to turn the game around. He responded by talking up the depth of his squad, suggesting that if Plan A did not work, then he always had Plans B and C ready to try.
"Everybody is focused, working hard, and in any moment they can bring something new, something good to the team," Zidane said. "When some play better, others worse, there will always be a teammate who can come in. The important thing is I have these players who can make the difference; not every coach has these resources. I have the fortune to have a complete squad.
