Hervé Renard's France team won a first reference success three months before the Women's World Cup by dominating the Canadian Olympic champions (2-1), Tuesday in Le Mans. After ten days in office, the former boss of Saudi Arabia has not only given enthusiasm to a selection in crisis, he has especially won two important successes in friendly, after the spectacular victory against Colombia Friday in Clermont-Ferrand.

The 14,200 spectators of the Marie-Marvingt stadium also attended a much more successful match on Tuesday than the Auvergne public on Friday, despite the rainy weather.
