The French coach, Hervé Renard, has assured that he will return to his old look once the World Cup has started.
Hervé Renard experienced his first misstep on Friday evening as coach of the French women’s team. In Melbourne, his proteges suffered the law of Australia (1-0). A setback that comes just before the start of the World Cup (August 20).
Renard does not want to change a method that works
The French technician will certainly change things for the first match of the competition, scheduled against Jamaica. Starting with her style of dress. Once the tournament has started, he will return to his favorite outfit, namely the white shirt.
“We’re not going to change anything that works,” he told L’Equipe Magazine, certainly referring to these successful international competitions with Zambia, Ivory Coast and Saudi Arabia.
And when it was pointed out to him that he deviated from his habits during his first matches with the girls, he replied: “yes, but those were friends”. On July 23, we will see him again with his favorite top. And it doesn’t matter if it’s winter in Australia. “It’s winter at 18.20 degrees”, he noted.
Renard can’t wait for this competition to begin. He also believes that his players are lucky to play in Oceania: “Australia is a beautiful country, but the distance may mean that the pressure is a little less strong than that which will be at the Olympic Games in Paris in a year”.
