Description
This is a special "Journey to the Cup" episode brought to you by Google Chrome.
Meg is joined by Charlotte Harpur and Steph Yang to discuss everything happening with the French women’s national team — from multiple players stepping away from the team over their concerns, including the team’s captain Wendie Renard, to the exit of head coach Corinne Diacre, the resignation of FFF president Noel Le Graet, and now the entrance of the team’s new head coach Herve Renard and possible return of players. All of this is happening only months before the World Cup, and time is running out for the team to prepare for this summer’s major tournament.
