Les Bleues back to the wall. After a draw against Jamaica (0-0) at the opening of the World Cup, the French team has no room for error against Brazil (kick-off 12:00 p.m., a match to follow in live on FM). In group F, the Brazilians got off to a good start, with great success against Panama (4-0) and come up against the French with confidence.
For this meeting, Hervé Renard changes three players after the inaugural draw against the Jamaicans. Wendie Renard, long uncertain, holds her place well in central defense with Lakrar who slips from the right to the axis. It is Périsset who will evolve as a right side. In the middle, the wings change. Majri and Mateo start on the bench in favor of Dali and Bacha. In front, the Le Sommer – Diani doublet is confirmed. On the Brazil side, Pia Sundhage, the coach, remains faithful to her 4-4-2 which worked against Panama. She changes only one player against the Blue with the entry into the eleven of Geyse who replaces Beatriz in front.
The official compositions:
France : Peyraud-Magnin – Périsset, Lakrar, Renard, Karchaoui – Dali, Geyoro, Toletti, Bacha – Le Sommer, Diani.
Brazil: Izidoro – Antonia, Lauren, Rafaelle, Tamires – Ary Borges, Kerolin, Luana, Adriana – Geyse, Debinha.
