Friday after the match won against England (3-1) in a friendly in Caen, the coach of the Bleues Corinne Deacon had chosen to take a step back.
“Programming is like that, we go through it.
Is it the same audience?
I don't know, ”she said at a press conference.
And to add: "I hope that football lovers will still continue to follow us a little, even if it is true that when we saw the first leg of PSG at Bayern (won 3-2 by Paris, Editor's note ), that can suggest a very good return match.
Now the France / United States poster is also beautiful, ”she concluded.
