France-Vietnam (7-0): too easy a success before the Euro?

We hope that the 200 Vietnamese supporters, who have never stopped encouraging their team and howling at every semblance of an offensive by their favorites, will not blame us, but when Marie-Antoinette Katoto placed a header in the back of the nets (4-0, 22nd), we began to look for the statistics of Blue goals.

Finally, despite Diani's double and multiple chances, the tricolor will not go higher than seven goals and will therefore not do better than against Bulgaria (14-0) in 2013.

But this record hunt remains anecdotal.

The issue was different indeed this Friday evening, nine days before the first match of the France team in England, against Italy.

Without three potential holders - Renard (preserved), Geyoro and Karchaoui (in recovery) - the French have certainly fulfilled the objectives set by Corinne Deacon for this new test after that of Cameroon (4-0) last Saturday: "continue to work physically , put our game back in place, maybe be a little more efficient.

And, above all, to start the match a little better”.

But the weakness of the adversary raises questions at the dawn of a competition where the Blues will have to face much greater opposition than that proposed by Vietnam.

It will go to Orleans for the Blue.

In the meantime, the 23 Bleues will be able to enjoy a few hours of family rest before heading to England on Tuesday.

This Friday, they have in any case finished their preparation on smiles.

And they will be able to carry them in their luggage in the absence of defensive teachings, that's at least that.
