Thierry Henry’s Les Bleus have certainly given Hervé Renard and his players some ideas. For its entry into the Olympic football tournament, the French women’s team intends to imitate its male counterparts,
winners over the United States in Marseille on Wednesday evening (3-0). For the Blues, it’s another big challenge that will present itself: Colombia.
“The only thing we want to experience are emotions, the French coach enthused at the pre-match press conference. And for me, it’s not stress that comes to me, I always try to think of moments of joy that could happen if everything went well. And those are magical moments.” The stage is set.
The expected compositions
France : Peyraud-Magnin – Lakrar, Mbock, Renard (c), Karchaoui – Geyoro, Toletti, Dali – Cascarino, Katoto, Diani.
Colombia: Giraldo – Yanten, Caicedo, Baron, Caracas – Ramirez, Pavi, Santos Herrera, Restrepo, Salazar – Usme. Coach: Angelo Marsiglia.
