The French women’s team faces Spain on Wednesday evening in Seville in the final of the Nations League. A match to follow live on our site at 7 p.m.

Spain-France, pre-match

It’s a big day for the French women’s team. Wednesday evening, on the lawn of the La Cartuja stadium in Seville, the Blues will play against Spain in the very first final in their history. A meeting to follow live with commentary on our site from 7 p.m., but also in streaming and unencrypted on the W9 channel.

It is certainly not a World Cup or Euro final, but this League of Nations has particular importance just five months before the Paris Olympic Games, where Hervé Renard’s players will have great ambitions. Facing the reigning world champions, this is a great opportunity to make an impression.

Building on their success against Germany (2-1), last Friday in Lyon, Eugénie Le Sommer and her teammates came up against a mountain. Led by Barcelona star Aitana Bonmati, elected Ballon d’Or 2023, La Roja defeated the Netherlands (3-0) and is the big favorite. Will the Tricolores achieve the feat?

Spain-France, the probable lineups

No change planned in the Blue eleven. Barring any last minute surprises, Hervé Renard should lead the team that started against the Germans five days earlier. In attack, Marie-Antoinette Katoto should therefore be supported by Kadidiatou Diani, Eugénie Le Sommer and Selma Bacha. A composition for history?

Spain: Coll – Battle, Paredes, Codina, Olga – Bonmati, Aleixandri, Hermoso – Athenea, Paralluelo, Caldentey.

France: Peyraud-Magnin – De Almeida, Lakrar, Mbock, Karchaoui – Henry, Geyoro – Diani, Le Sommer, Bacha – Katoto.
