On Tuesday, the France A team and the coach Corinne Deacon were in Clairefontaine. The new coach of Les Bleues took the opportunity to give a press conference, with the prospect of two friendly matches against Germany (24 November) and Sweden (27 November). She answered journalists' questions about the players selected for these two matches.



Cards in hand


Among these players is a "ghost". Marie-Laure Delie, 104 selections and 63 goals in selection, had not been called at the last two rallies. "Marie-Laure [Delie] is here today indeed," said Deacon. I first wanted to see what she was doing in a club, there are some interesting things. Marie-Laure [Delie] is no stranger to the French team either. Now she's here (...) and if she has a chance [it's] her to show me that she still has the ability to be in France team. "


Author of seven goals in eight games of D1 with Paris Saint-Germain, Delie is rewarded for its good start to the season. Now remains to turn the test against Germany Friday in Bielefeld, or against Sweden Monday in Bordeaux.
