Les Bleus coach Deschamps told the Manchester United midfielder he "must do better" after his unconvincing display in the win against Bulgaria last week.
And Pogba responded with a 30-yard strike to secure three more points in their World Cup qualifying bid.
Afterwards he revealed Deschamps had told him.
"As he says, I must make the game, recover and be there in the defensive effort.
"This positioning is a bit like Pirlo — defend a bit more, play a little more for the team."
