Les Bleues are in the round of 16 of the World Cup. The France team qualified on Wednesday August 2 for the rest of the competition by beating Panama (6-3) at Sydney Football Stadium (Australia). Surprised from the start of the match by the Panamanians, Hervé Renard’s players quickly regained the advantage in the match and chained the goals. Less rigorous at the end of the meeting, they conceded two Panamanian achievements. France finished first in group F. In the other pool game, Jamaica created a surprise and qualified thanks to a draw (0-0) once morest Brazil.
A largely overhauled workforce. There are five changes among the starters compared to the team that started once morest Brazil. Wendie Renard, who had almost missed this last meeting due to an injury, is preserved and replaced by Elisa De Almeida, while the other veteran of the group, Eugénie Le Sommer, leaves her place to Vicki Becho, 19, author with an exciting entry on Saturday. Threatened with suspension in the round of 16 if they take a yellow card, Sandie Toletti, Kenza Dali and Sakina Karchaoui are also sheltered in favor of Léa Le Garrec, Clara Matéo and Estelle Cascarino.
The qualification almost assured, the first place to be confirmed. Les Bleues will only be eliminated if they lose once morest Panama, while Brazil draw once morest Jamaica, or win by a narrower scoreline. An unlikely scenario. On the other hand, France are not immune to losing first place in the group if they do not win by several goals. However, finishing top would probably put them on the road to Germany, a prospect not necessarily more pleasing than facing Colombia. The identity of their opponent will be known Thursday at midday.
A novice opponent. Panama is playing its first World Cup and, in the first matches, the march turned out to be a little high: the Panamanians were largely beaten by Brazil (4-0), then gave Jamaica its first victory in a World Cup (1-0). They have yet to score in the competition.
