The Angevin sweetness will not ultimately have been decisive for them. At the Raymond-Kopa stadium, the players of the France team failed to make the perfect hat-trick after the two previous successes against Denmark (1-0) and Uruguay (5-1). However, they won the Tournoi de France for the third time. A good omen less than seven months from the next World Cup in Australia and New Zealand (July 20 – August 20).
Deprived of Mbock, Karchaoui, Bacha and Katoto, Corinne Deacon was once again forced to experiment with a new game system with a classic 4-3-3. Kenza Dali is the first to stand out but the Norwegian goalkeeper relaxes well (5th), as on the attempt of Sandy Baltimore who slips under his crossbar (35th). The Scandinavians then consecutively touch the amounts twice by Reiten (44th). After the break, the game is balanced then the French go up a gear. Without success.
“We lacked precision and we came across solid players, recognizes Corinne Deacon at the microphone of W9. However, I learned a lot from it. We will analyze all of this with a clear head to move on quickly. We experienced a lot of things during these three games, both in the system and for the players. I had a big job with the defense. In the end we only concede one goal. It’s good. »
Les Bleues will meet again at the beginning of April to continue their preparation. Two new friendly matches are scheduled, first on April 7 against Colombia in Clermont, before continuing with Canada at Le Mans.
