Paris, June 8: France's second goalkeeper Steve Mandanda said on Wednesday that they want to reach the final of Euro football championship which his country hosts, starting on Friday.

On the last-minute absence of some of the crucial players before the Euro, Mandanda said that the strength of team is in collective work and even though they have lost some important footballers, especially in defence, they have trained hard and can overcome the issue.
