Small concern in the tricolor hinge. The defender of the France team Maëlle Lakrar, hit in the left thigh, did not train on Sunday in Adelaide (Australia), we learned from the management of the Blue. Bad news two days before the round of 16 of the World Cup against Morocco, this Tuesday (1:00 p.m.).
Lakrar, a Montpellier player, felt “discomfort in her left thigh” on Saturday during training, explained the coaching staff, without commenting on her availability for the match against the Moroccans. The other 22 players trained normally on Sunday.
Unhappy with the harshness of this training ground in North Adelaide, Hervé Renard’s staff asked Fifa to change the ground before their round of 16. Les Bleues thus trained on Sunday in the center of Adelaide, on another lawn in better condition.
In the absence of Lakrar (23) on Tuesday against Morocco, the management has two main solutions in central defense alongside captain Wendie Renard: the Parisians Élisa De Almeida and Estelle Cascarino.
