Didier Deschamps Takes on Ice Bucket Challenge
French national team coach Didier Deschamps joined the global wave of support for ALS awareness by participating in the Ice Bucket Challenge on Saturday. The challenge, initiated by the American ALS Association to raise funds and awareness for Lou Gehrig’s disease, has swept across the sports world in recent days.
Deschamps was nominated by Belgium coach Marc Wilmots and accepted the chilly challenge with good humor. After completing it, he called out former French international Marcel Desailly, TV presenter Nagui, and Olympique de Marseille president Vincent Labrune to take part next.
