After the big victory against the Panthère du Gabon [7-0] when they entered the competition in the 2nd South Ladies Cup in France, our Grenadières after the victory's honey knew the bitter taste of the defeat, bowing [4-0] against the Bleuettes U-19 of the France team.

After a start of the match lacking technical accuracy, our Grenadières compactes in defense have made difficult openings for the Bleuettes, battling bravely against the French. In spite of all their efforts, the French Mickaélla Cardia opens the score to the 35' in favor of the Bleuettes [1-0].

Just before the break, France has a new opportunity (45th +2) but the Haitian defense avoids a second goal.

At the return of the locker room our girls made some good actions to try to restore the balance, like this shot of Valentina Ornis (46'), dismissed by the French goalkeeper who gave sweats to the Bleuettes. But the French, took control and depressed the score of Chloé Philippe at 61' [2-0]. After that goal, our Grenadiers proved powerless and conceded two more goals Mickaélla Cardia (his double) at 68' [3-0] and Sonia Ouchene at 82' [4-0].

Recall that in 2018, our Grenadières had already lost [5-0] against Les Bleuettes https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-24614-haiti-football-u-20-at-the-tournament-sud-ladies-cup-2-big-defeats-for-our-grenadieres.html
