Paris: France coach Didier Deschamps was pleased with his side's recovery after coming from behind to beat Bulgaria 4-1 in Paris on Friday.
Kevin Gameiro struck twice while Dimitri Payet and Antoine Griezmann also got on the scoresheet as France replied to Mihail Alexandrov's early penalty to secure their first win of their World Cup qualifying campaign.
Deschamps later told TF1: "We could pick fault with the penalty but they regained control of the match and went in at the break two goals ahead. In the second period we were not in trouble and created several more chances. We scored a goal and could have had two more."
Deschamps was particularly happy with the strike pairing of Atletico Madrid duo Gameiro and Griezmann, who were a handful throughout.
