The French youth team is playing its second qualifying match for the Euro this Friday. Facing Bosnia, they will still aim for 3 points.
A few hours before the Bleus of Didier Deschamps, the Bleuets of Thierry Henry will be out this Friday. For the Euro qualifications, they face Bosnia-Herzegovina away.
Bleuets ready to move on
Big winners over Slovenia last month (5-0), the Tricolores will try to confirm against this other selection from the Balkans. The task is far from insurmountable. The Bosnians are far from being the thunderbolts of war, having fallen in their first two outings in these qualifiers.
Compared to last month, Henry has considerably modified his squad, calling up around ten new players. This should not prevent the team from performing well, especially since its main weapons are all present. Elie Wahi and Rayan Cherki should also be lined up from the start in Sarajevo.
In the event of a victory, the Bleuets will move back past Austria at the top of their group. They will then be able to calmly look forward to the Cyprus reception, scheduled for the beginning of next week in Grenoble.
The probable composition of France:
France Hopes: Remains – Sildillia, Magassa, Yoro, Merlin – Ugochukwu, Zaire-Emery, Lepenant – Cherki, Wahi, Barcola.
