Qualifiers Women's Euro 2025 Ireland-France Male Lacr

The Blues, who were already guaranteed to take part in the final stage in Switzerland for the final match of the Euro 2025 qualifiers, lost to the Republic of Ireland (1-3) on Tuesday but maintained their lead in their group.

The French women's team completed qualifying for the 2025 European Championship and Herve Renard's men hit back against the Republic on their tour of Switzerland (July 2-27) from last Friday. Day 6 of Ireland's (1-3) qualifiers, this Tuesday July 16.

France, who fielded a completely changed team, resisted in the first half and conceded two long balls in the second half, which hurt the French defence. Denis O'Sullivan first found the opening with a cross shot from the right (0-1, 67th), then Julie Russell, very active and first goal passer of the match, doubled the lead with a fine sequence (0-2, 76th). Vicky Bechow revived her team-mates by reducing the gap (1-2, 79), but Cadidiato Diani's effort deflected off Brosnan's right post (83rd) and the Irish took advantage of the mistake to score with a header from a corner (1-3, Anna Patten, 90th). .

Despite this result, the Blues, who saw Sandy Baltimore and Male Lucker exit during the match, remained top of the group as England and Sweden shared the points in the other match (0-0). He is sure to appear in the first hat in the final draw on December 16.

They will now take advantage of a break before moving on to their summer priority target: the Paris 2024 Olympic Games on Friday evening, with eighteen players selected by the coach and four reserves staying in Lyon, where their base camp is located. . They will make their debut against Colombia on Thursday 25th July at 9pm in Dessins.
