France coach Didier Deschamps has insisted he is unconcerned by his team's continued failure to find the net, setting a record five goalless matches in a row.
.
France's World Cup qualifying 0-0 draw in Georgia on Friday night meant the former Juventus, Marseille and Monaco coach's team have made history for all the wrong reasons.
.
Their last goal came in March in a 3-1 win over Georgia at home, but since then they have lost 1-0 to Spain in their European zone qualifying Group I, been beaten in friendlies by Uruguay (1-0) and Brazil (3-0) and played out a goalless draw with Belgium in another friendly.
.
If France go another 21 minutes in Belarus on Tuesday without finding the net, they will also set an absolute national record for the number of consecutive minutes without troubling the scoreboards.
.
And yet Deschamps says he is not worried, although he admits their struggles are becoming a problem.
.
"I'm not worried but if we're there (setting a new record) it's because we've got problems. I'm assessing it and doing everything to improve it," said Deschamps.
.
"Our problem for five matches is that we haven't scored. From that point of view it's impossible to win matches. We have to find a way to improve that.
.
"I don't have any miracle solutions but we shouldn't beat ourselves up either, we need to keep persevering to reverse this tendency.
I think France as a country has lost quality when it comes to football. Their strikeforce is no longer the one we're used to!
