Sounds like a douche move to try to even get a chance to win. Why not assassinate some players while they at it. Maybe cause accidents.
I don't blame PSG. The FFF should know better really. But as they said, they have created the Tournoi de France so that our players don't have to travel too much...
Seems a bit extreme but as a matter of fact, OL was robbed the Coupe de France 2 years ago with the consent of the FFF as refeering was highly unfair and biased toward Lyon...so who knows. Even I, fan of PSG, have no shame to admit this.
Game confirmed for Saturday 14 March 15.30. We will see if Lyon does not select their five Shebelieves Cup players. PSG will also have Paredes missing. Looking at flights the first flight on the 12th from Dallas to Paris, they all land 13 March in the morning.
Lyon have started an administrative process with the CNOSF to force a conciliation with the FFF and PSG to change the date of the game. Programmation de #PSGOL en @D1Arkema ! https://t.co/QSeC576pEY— OL Féminin (@OLfeminin) February 26, 2020
If they don't play with the 5 Sheba Cup players, their starting 11 would look like Bouhaddi; Cayman, Renard, M'Bock, Bacha; Henry, Maroszan, Le Sommer; Cascarino, Feller, Majri; Subs: Weiss, Van De Sanden, Kazidi, Kouache, Silva PSG : Endler; Perisset, Dudek, Cook, Morroni; Formiga, Geyoro, Lawrence ; Diani, Katoto, Nadim; Subs from : Kiedrzynek; Glas,Luana, Boussaha, Diallo, Khelifi, Saevik, Baltimore, Huitema,
I see the 5 SheBelieves players of course include Kumagai; who are the 5 French Internationals instead?
The other 3 players are Bronze, Greenwood, Parris, I forgot Christiansen left in January. Bronze pulled out of the England squad, so my guess is she will be ready v PSG as it is a calf injury.
The footballers Union UNFP is now getting involved in asking the FFF to postpone the game. They call it a health and safety problem for the players and rightly so.
CNOSF has proposed a new date for PSG v OL, Sat 4 April. The FFF need to validate that offer or refuse it. I believe if the FFF says no, it goes to the highest court in France. This would be on Matchday 19 and then PSG and Lyon would have to postpone their matchday 19 games.
The FFF will decide today if the game goes ahead as planned on Saturday or moved to another date. If it is played Saturday they have to decide if it is played behind closed door or not as 5 200 tickets are already sold. So it's over the limit decided by the health ministry.
The executive commitee of the FFF has refused the proposition from the CNOSF. PSG v Lyon will be played on Saturday.
All football under control from the FFF cancelled by the FFF president following president Macron address to the nation last night. No D1 Arkema and below level football UFN.
Just before the Covid-19 pandemic, the FFF executive commitee validated the 2020/21 calendar for the D1 Arkema. Obviously this will be void as it looks like the League is not restarting soon. The FFF cannot decide to restart the football competition without the agreements of the politician. They have a delegation to organise football from the ministry of sports.
Bouhaddi & Marozsan might be moving over to the NWSL/Utah Royals during the summer. Not sure if this temp or pernament, based on the google tranlsation in this article Sport | Sarah Bouhaddi and Dzsenifer Marozsan leaving for the United States Bouhaddi is the usual starting GK for both Lyon & France NT Marozsan is an mid that currently leads the French League in assists as well as the 5th top scorer
Some bizzare movements at PSG. They have let go their out of contracts right-backs Hannah Glas to FC Bayern and Eve Perisset to FC Girondins de Bordeaux. Goalie Katarzyna Kiedrzynek is also out of contracts and could en up at Wolfsburg. They are also letting two 17 years old go to Lyon. France U19 Euro champions Vicky Becho and also defender Alice Sombath.
Marozsan had pulmonary embolism. Isn`t it a big risk to play football for her until a vaccine is found?
Has as in pass tense. Considering she was playing against England last time I saw her, I think it should be fine.
maybe he's concerned that we're the only industrialised country in the world without universal health care? No worries Lohmann, it's only scary when you recieve all your medical bills!
I was talking about the higher risk a person has who had already had a serious illness concerning her lungs. If she gets infected with the coronavirus her illness could be more serious than what could be normally expected in her age. If you play football you can`t avoid contact with other persons.
it's her choice to continue playing, she could take it easier by temporarily retiring from the German NT(as the squad proven is deep enough to be without her) or playing for Lyon(who got quite an active schedule like usually going into the finals of the CL: & French Cup, as well as the ICC summer tourney). Salt Lake City(Utah) is a spread out/less dense, mostly white town. Unfortunately it's our minority population in close quartered cities that's suffering the most. Covid-19 deaths for the state of Utah(pop 3.2 million) is so far only 22. SLC is also very affordable compared to ultra expensive Lyon(median house worth $334K compared to $1 million+?), but Maro will definitely take an pay cut(to an 5 figures instead of the low 6 figures she's probably making now) but your right in terms of her health, SLC's elevation is nearly 4300 ft/1300 meters high & hopefully the team gives her full medical coverage(as it's expensive to buy insurance over here with an pre exisitng condition) while moving to the states is not for everyone, Nadine Angerer(GK coach of the Thorns) loves it over here. But she lives in the rather quirky/liberal city of Portland, Oregon, SLK is way more conservative town dominated by the Mormon Church, who might discourage other types of lifestyles. it's all these things that Maro must consider before moving over there, but in the end, it's her choice(but maybe it's an ploy to get Lyon to make an sizeable counter over?)
FFF has decided to end the season from level 2 and below as well as the youth teams. D1 Arkema season decision is not done yet. Promotion from D2 to D1 decided with Issy from Group A going up coefficient 2.563 with the runner-up Rodez far behind at 1.813. In Group B, big controversy as Le Havre going up with a 2.500 coefficient while runner-up St-Etienne are unhappy with their 2.467 coeffcient as they are denied because they have a game in hand basically. Le Havre have 40 points in 16 and St Etienne 37 points in 15. Their head to head game ( the usual tie-breaker) ended up ASSE 4 HAC 1.
Let the administrative bottle commence. St-Etienne are going to appeal to the conciliation commission CNOSF. If they don't get an agreement to go up, they might appeal to the administrative tribunal. We might end up with D1 Arkema with 13 teams in 2020/21.
Two new signings for Lyon, one goalie and one defensive midfielder who comes on a free transfer. Deux recrues chez les filles à l'OL : Lola Gallardo (Atletico) et Sara Björk Gunnarsdottir (Wolfburg) arrivent pour la saison prochaine #Mercato #RMCSport— Loïc Tanzi (@Tanziloic) April 18, 2020
