Scorer Friday evening in the Nations League against Austria (3-0), Amandine Henry praised the great performance of the “dinosaurs”, the group of thirty-somethings among the Blues.
A goal from Amandine Henry, another from Eugénie Le Sommer, and Wendie Renard still faithful to the defensive position. It is clear that the France team continues to rely on its core of experienced players, as was the case Friday evening against Austria (3-0) in the Nations League. And it works pretty well.
“They call us dinosaurs, Amandine Henry had fun after the meeting. We are super happy, full of confidence. We know that we must be leaders of this team. We try to be as efficient as possible and there are days when it works, others when it won’t. In any case, we will always give our best. »
After the disappointment of elimination in the quarter-finals of the World Cup, the Blues reacted well during the Nations League, of which they will compete in the semi-finals. And Hervé Renard can draw a positive conclusion from this new victory against Austria.
“At half-time, we were not satisfied, reacted the French coach. It’s good, even when leading 1-0, to shine a spotlight on what’s going wrong. We could see that this Austrian team was looking for depth. We had to be closer, have more determination, look forward. This is what the team did well in the second half. We showed realism this evening. The thing we failed to do against Norway. 13 points out of 15 is good. We have a qualification for this Final Four. Even if there is still one match left on Tuesday in Portugal. »
