Cabaye: France wants to win Euros for victims of Paris attacks

France will have added motivation when it plays Euro 2016 on home soil, according to Yohan Cabaye.

Yohan Cabaye says France is motivated by the prospect of paying tribute to the victims of November's terrorist attacks in Paris with victory at Euro 2016.

A total of 130 people were killed when a series of coordinated attacks were carried out across the French capital Nov. 13, including outside the Stade de France, where the national team was taking on Germany in a friendly.

Cabaye came off the bench during that match and says the victims will not be far from the players' minds during the tournament.
