Atalanta-PSG: Domenech mocks Gasperini and attracts the wrath of the Italian press

And a new provocation from Raymond Domenech! PSG qualified after a victory at the end ofSuspense against Atalanta (2-1), the former coach of the France team was quick to tweet, mocking the coach of the Italian club, and scratching his name in the process. “Bravo to PSG for this great emotion and thank you to Gasparini for his changes at the end of the match. It just goes to show that the legend of the Italian coaches who was a great tactician in this match remains a legend. Tuchel was more successful, ”he wrote.

Bravo to PSG for this great emotion and thank you to Gasparini for his changes at the end of the match. It just goes to show that the legend of the Italian coaches who was a great tactician in this match remains a legend. Tuchel had more success.

Last week, the former coach of the Blues had already warmed up, more subtly, on the social network: “Bravo to Rudi Garcia who with OL has proven that the French coaches are as good tactically as the Italians. It's always worth emphasizing, you never know, you forget so quickly in this job. "

But the tackle against Gasperini does not pass with our transalpine neighbors. On the side of the Rai, the journalist Alessandro Antinelli did not fail to recall the refusal of the Blues to get out of the bus in Knysna to come to train after the exclusion of the group of Nicolas Anelka. “I remember you at the 2006 World Cup, but especially at the 2010 World Cup. You were a legend! Legend of the comedy with Anelka. Have a good day."

A grudge over twenty-five years old

These interventions by Raymond Domenech against Italian football? The fault, perhaps, with a badly digested final of July 2006, on which Paolo Condo, journalist, in particular, at Sky Sport, insisted well on the platform with the blue bird: “France produced enormous coaches over the past forty years, from Hidalgo to Deschamps, from Jacquet to Lemerre, to the extraordinary Zidane today. Fortunately for us, none of them were on the national team bench in 2006. ”

La Francia ha prodotto negli ultimi 40 anni allenatori enormi, da Hidalgo to Deschamps, da Jacquet to Demerre fino allo straordinario Zidane di oggi. Per nostra fortuna nessuno di loro era sulla panchina della nazionale nel 2006 https://t.co/hPwjhea2dr

If this World Cup remains in everyone's memories, the French technician's disenchantment with transalpine football does not start there. His first France-Italy as a coach dates back to 1994, in the semi-final of the European Under-21 Championship. Raymond Domenech leads a great team made up of Zidane, Dugarry and Makelele in particular. Despite the golden squad, the Italians won on penalties .

Five years later, Raymond Domenech tries to qualify Landreau, Sagnol, Gallas and the other Bleuets for the Olympic Games. The Italians end up winning after extra time. Raymond Domenech considers himself robbed and will say so openly in 2007, which will earn him a match suspension by UEFA.
