They may be one of the pre-tournament favorites, but Corinne Diacre’s decision to leave former skipper Amandine Henry and all-time top scorer Eugénie Le Sommer at home means that France enters the Euros under a cloud of ill-feeling and apprehension. Things unraveled pretty quickly for Les Bleues at the last Euros, and a fast start for Italy could prove too much for this often brittle side to handle. Here’s how to watch a France vs Italy live stream for the 2022 Women’s EURO 2022, no matter where you are in the world – including free-to-air coverage in some places.
The goalscoring burden will instead be carried by PSG’s prolific forward Marie-Antoinette Katoto, who herself has first-hand experience of Diacre’s wrath. Tasked with holding everything together is Wendie Renard, the national treasure who led the team through an unbeaten qualification campaign and a triumph at the Tournoi de France.
However, she’s going to have her work cut out against a fluid Italian front three with Cristiana Girelli as its focal point. Barbara Bonansea and Valentina Giacinti will be looking to pull the France backline this way and then that, with Girelli set to capitalize on the ensuing chaos.
However, given time on the ball, the real damage may well be done by the Azzurre’s deep-lying playmaker Manuela Giugliano, who’s taken up the Andrea Pirlo mantle for Milenia Bertolini’s side. Follow our guide as we explain how to get a France vs Italy live stream and watch the 2022 Women’s EURO 2022 online.
