France head coach Jerome Daret was full of praise for Dupont after he led them to Olympic gold.
Transcript
00:00Antoine Dupont brought what we expected from him. He's an exceptional player.
00:07I think the first ball he touched showed he was an exceptional player.
00:12We had to score that goal at that moment.
00:16It's all in his honour, of course, but he was able to do it,
00:22because the players next to him helped him find that solution.
00:30I think that coming on the pitch puts a lot of pressure on the opponent
00:36and adds a lot of soul to our team.
00:42One of our objectives was to bring that serenity,
00:46that feeling of victory, but without stress,
00:49with just a positive stress and that power that comes naturally.
00:53We didn't have to force the line,
00:55and that helped us a lot, because he brought a lot of performance.
00:59There was already a good performance in France against Biasset,
01:02but he brought consistency.
