After the cancellation of his match against Luxembourg, due to a bus accident of which the Luxembourg delegation was the victim, the French Hopes team played a friendly match against Serbia, this Monday (kick -off 9 p.m.) at the Moustoir de Lorient stadium. The opportunity for Gérald Baticle to compose with a rejuvenated group, three months after the heavy defeat in the semi-finals of the Euro against Germany (3-0).
A year ago, the Blueberries caused a sensation by winning the silver medal from the Paris 2024 Olympic Games Football Tournament, Thierry Henry's players bowed to extension against Spain during the final at the Parc des Princes (3-5). The 98 world champion then left his post to return to England, leaving the FFF to entrust the mission to Batic, one of the assistants of “Titi” Henry.
In September, hopes do not have a TV diffuser. The L'Equipe channel had obtained the rights of the blueberries for the 2024-2025 season but the agreement with the FFF was obviously not renewed. At least, for the moment.

An audiovisual group should recover the TV rights of the tricolor selection for the eliminations of the Euro Espoirs 2027. The first two matches scheduled in October will compete against the Tarroes and Estonia.
In the meantime, this France-Serbia in Morbihan will be followed on the FFF Youtube channel. The opportunity to see Leny Yoro, Chrislain Matsima or Ayyoub Bouaddi become the new tauliers of the Bleuets, with Wilson Odobert, Éli Junior Kroupi and Mathys Tel in offensive weapons. Nathan Zézé, Valentin Atangana and Saimon Bouabré, all three parties in Saudi Arabia this summer, are indeed there, unlike Rennais Jérémy Jacquet, Djaoui Cissé and Mohamed Kader Meïté, who forfeited.
