It is a pivotal gathering before serious things. In three months, the French Hopes team will address the Euro Hopes with a great ambition, as usual. A capital deadline for a category so often disappointing in major international tournaments in the past. But before that, it is in a back -to -school atmosphere that the Bleuets put the cover this Friday evening at the Lorient Moustoir.
And the poster for their return to competition can allow them to learn some lessons since young tricolors will rub shoulders with a team from England which also is full of young talents. Led by elements like Akliouche, Ekitike or Kalimuendo, Gérald Batic's men hope to fill up on confidence and refine their automatisms in this gala match.
The expected compositions:
France Hopes : Remains – Sildillia, Kouassi, Esteve, Belocian – Agoume, Akliouche, Lepenant – Millot, Kalimuendo, Ekitike.
England Hopes : Beadle-Quansah, Cresswell, Doyle-Iling, Gray, Anderson, Bynoe-Gittens-Scott, Rogers, McATEE.
Where to see the match?
