Didier Deschamps is planning to put Dimitri Payet on ice to protect his star player after his late heroics earned hosts France a 2-1 win in a dramatic Euro 2016 opener on Friday.
Olivier Giroud headed France into a second-half lead, but the the Stade de France crowd were left stunned when Bogdan Stancu levelled from the penalty spot.
But with time against Les Bleus, Payet let fly from range with an unstoppable left-foot effort that nestled in the top corner to bring the Parisian fans to their feet.
It capped a brilliant solo performance from the West Ham attacker, who left the field in tears when substituted shortly after his heroics.
