The France team landed in Australia and will now prepare for the World Cup there. In conditions that are not optimal in the eyes of Hervé Renard.
After an inevitably long and exhausting journey, the French women’s team has settled in Australia, near Melbourne, where a prestigious friendly match against the local team will take place on July 14th. It will then be time to finally fly to Sidney, to join the base camp of the Blues for the World Cup, and a city where they will play two of the three matches of their group, against Jamaica and Panama. A choice over which Hervé Renard had no control, since everything had been reserved by Corinne Deacon’s team before his departure, and it was complicated to upset everything when places are expensive with the world competition. in this part of the world.

This preparatory program chosen by the previous team was therefore not upset by Hervé Renard, even if that does not prevent the latter from displaying his dissatisfaction. Without giving any reason, the national coach does not appreciate the choice of base camp at Valentine Sports Park, not far from Sidney and only 5 kilometers from the players’ hotel. The former coach of Saudi Arabia did not want to explain why this choice displeased him, but he made it clear that he would not have opted for this destination to prepare and experience the World Cup.
Didier Deschamps is well placed to know…
An event that is important, as the choice of base camps to have the best possible preparation comes into play. And at the French Football Federation, we know this very well since the anger of Didier Deschamps on the conditions of stay of his players during Euro 2020 in Hungary, with a change of hotel due to a bad lawn and players confined to rooms in the heart of Budapest thereafter remained legendary at Clairefontaine.
