FRANCE – WOMEN’S EURO 2022 HOME SHIRT
France, known as Les Bleues, are one of Europe’s most exciting and consistently strong forces in the women’s game. Having played their first official matches in the early 1970s, the French women’s national team has steadily risen through the ranks, becoming a regular presence at major international tournaments and earning a reputation for technical, expressive football.
On the global stage, France have reached the knockout rounds of multiple FIFA Women’s World Cups, with their best performance coming in 2011, when they finished fourth. In the UEFA Women’s European Championship, they have been frequent contenders, advancing to the latter stages several times and continually pushing to break into the tournament’s elite tier.
Across the years, Les Bleues have produced a host of standout players. Icons such as Louisa Nécib and Camille Abily helped lay the foundations for modern success, while the current generation boasts stars like Wendie Renard - renowned for her commanding defensive presence - and the dynamic attacking talents of players such as Marie-Antoinette Katoto and Delphine Cascarino.
France wore this elegant home shirt at UEFA Women’s EURO 2022, where they delivered one of their strongest tournament showings to date. After topping their group, they reached the semi-finals for the first time in their history, ultimately falling just short of a place in the final. The campaign marked a major step forward, showcasing the team’s growing stature and the depth of quality throughout the squad.
