Didier Deschamps said France must "get back to basics" after they "took a good slap" when losing 2-0 against Turkey in Saturday's Euro 2020 qualifier.
Les Bleus coach was left frustrated after first-half goals from Kaan Ayhan and Cengiz Under condemned his side to their first-ever defeat against the Turks in the Group H clash at the Torku Arena in Konya.
We took a good slap tonight. We have to analyse it, we have another match to come in three days.
Didier Deschamps
The 2018 World Cup champions failed to even muster a shot on target throughout the game and they must now find a response in Tuesday's clash in Andorra.
Afterwards, Deschamps told TF1: "When the team performs like that, there is nothing positive to take away from it.
"We did not turn up and even if we are world champions, if we play like that we have no hope.
"We took a good slap tonight. We have to analyse it, we have another match to come in three days.
"Nothing more to add apart from to say well done to Turkey, and to get back to basics."
France, who sit three points behind Turkey in Group H but are 1/4 to qulaify for Euro 2020 on top, are 3/1 to win in Andorra by a three-goal margin. The hosts are 50/1 to win and the draw is 18/1.
