Coach Hervé Renard: "We have everything to achieve the objectives" of the semifinals at the World Cup in Australia and New Zealand. He unveiled his preliminary list of 26 players with Amandine Henry but without Kheira Hamraoui, a "sporting decision" "There is not much that will change: the absence of Delphine (Cascarino, injured) is a huge lack for this team of France," he said.

"I weighed the pros and cons, the different qualities they had," Renard said of Sandy Baltimore, not retained, "I'm not going to comment on his season"
