Hugo Lloris wants to 'hit Spain where it hurts'

France captain Hugo Lloris has vowed to 'hit Spain where it hurts' when they meet in Tuesday's World Cup qualifier.

Les Bleus will be looking for a positive result in Madrid against the World and European champions following their shock 1-0 friendly defeat to Japan on Friday.

"It could be difficult, but we have to be together, and everyone has to put in a huge effort and hit them where it hurts," Lloris told reporters. "We will certainly have our chances, and we cannot let them pass."

Spain currently lead France in Group I on goal difference after both sides picked up wins in their opening two matches.
