The promising victory of Les Bleues over Brazil in the World Cup made their coach, Hervé Renard, part of the history of the competition.
Hervé Renard is not just a white shirt and a seductive smile. The coach of the French women’s team has more than respectable experience and results. The 54-year-old French technician led Zambia (2012) then Côte d’Ivoire (2015) to the supreme title in Africa, namely lifting the CAN trophy.
In his rich life as a coach, Hervé Renard also led an African team in the World Cup. At the head of Morocco in 2018 on Russian soil, the Atlas Lions obtained a draw against Spain (2-2) and suffered two defeats with a score of 1-0 (Portugal and Iran).
Four years later in Qatar, Renard and Saudi Arabia caused a sensation on November 22, 2022 by beating Argentina, the future winner, in the group stage. This success combined with that of Les Bleues, achieved brilliantly on Saturday against Brazil in the first round of the 2023 Women’s World Cup (2-1) brings Hervé Renard into history.
He became the first coach to win a men’s and women’s World Cup match, did not forget to highlight the digital media of Les Bleues.
