Thierry Henry has little certainty about the team he will be able to field at the Olympic Games. The coach of the French U23 team must deal with the discretionary power of clubs over the participation of players. The two friendly matches planned for this last gathering are an opportunity to make the first adjustments, and to see the six players from the 2001 generation recalled for the occasion in action.
And the coach of the young blues did not miss this opportunity. Since he made 8 changes in his starting lineup, compared to the one he lined up against Ivory Coast. Friday, his players were in difficulty against the Elephants, and had to reverse the score to win (3-2). Finally, it seems that the former top scorer of the France team wants to test as many profiles as possible before the big deadline this summer. It will be July 24 at the Vélodrome, against the United States. This evening in Bonal, we will have a taste of this opening match.
