As for the Blues, who went back to Clairefontaine on Monday, the time of recovery rang for Grégoire Margotton and Bixente Lizarazu. The TF1 journalist and his star consultant will be on the air on Friday evening (8:45 p.m.), in Wroclaw in Poland, for the first match of the French team in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers against Ukraine.

A change in radical decor for the 1998 world champion, who spent a dream summer in Polynesia, while his pair started this new season on the side of Katowice, to follow the tricolor basketball players at the Eurobasket alongside Nicolas Batum.
“It was the last plunge in my large mint swimming pool in the water …”posted “Liza” on her Instagram account.

Bixente Lizarazu's dream holidays

“It is not easy to leave Polynesia, we quickly get attached to this land, this sea, this population, this raw nature, these colors … and since my return to France, time is … greyness, rain and cold. A gull time like the Breton saying ”adds the ex-left lateral, already nostalgic for his heavenly holidays. Between boat, surfing and scuba diving.

If there was a doubt about the presence of Grégoire Margotton by his side for Ukraine-France and France-Island next Tuesday, due to the very busy agenda of the commentator, TF1 assured in a statement released on August 11 that all the Blues' matches will be covered by the two men, accompanied by Saber Desfarges on the edge.
