Selma Bacha (Olympique Lyonnais), hit in the thigh, is forfeited for the first rally of the season for Les Bleues.
Arrived at Clairefontaine at the start of the afternoon, the young defender named for the Ballon d’Or 2022 came to report a slight injury to her left thigh. As a precaution, Corinne Deacon preferred to make it available to her club.
It will be replaced by Grace Kazadi (EA Guingamp) already called by the coach in April 2021 and who has a selection for the France team. The 21-year-old defender will join Les Bleues at the “Château” tonight.
The French women’s team will play its last two qualifying matches for the 2023 World Cup this Friday in Estonia and Tuesday, September 6 in Sedan, against Greece. Already assured of competing in the World Cup in Australia and New Zealand (July 20 – August 20), the Tricolores will be keen to finish undefeated in this qualifying course.
