Are you disappointed with France's result?

That`s a lesson for all how important good teamwork and good coach are. How can we rely on a coach who selects his squad based on their STAR SIGN?I read that Domenech doesn`t like people under Scorpio sign,based on his experience while coaching Lyon. He likes Cancer and Leo. It is ironic that France with goo players had to deal with such a conflict and it affected its performance at the pitch. Hope Zidane will be a coach

It is disappointing that France is out of the World Cup so early. It is hard to believe that they can't go to next round. I am not sure whether the conflicts have a negative effect on them. But I think as the soccer players, as long as they have the match in the court, they shall do their best. Not each country has the chance to play in the World Cup. France team shall do their best. So even if they lose at last, they still have the respect. But now they have more blames instead. I love China

There's no denying it, France are the more talented of the two teams and they could have won that match if they really wanted to but it was clear from the start that their hearts weren't in it. With Anelka being sent home and all the arguements and friction inside the camp I'm not surprised either. I was happy to see South Africa win the match though, they put their full efforts into it and I'm sad to see them out of the tournament. Nothing to be ashamed off though, they did deliver the goods on the night and showed passion unity amoungst their players, management and fans that France just couldn't have done and that makes for a happier squad.

France has shown the worst side of football in this summer. They have played the worst football ever coming from the position of vice champions of the world. The shame is greater after the incident happened on Sunday when the France players have refused to train. This is a great shame for France.

I think the France's team is stronger than South Africa .But the fact is so sad . The players of france's team are not exciting when the match had been . So their performance disappointed the fans ,including me .

Raymond Domanech may be a better stargazer than football coach,his team's performence is just a big joke.I think Henry must regret that his handball help France to enter the finals.

i have to say that i am. i am in canada and we dont have a team so i was hoping that france and england would do well and they have not. even hubby is disappointed in germany too.

This was the end game on Raymond Domanech's disastrous reign as the French coach. South Africa had a real go at the French team. France as expected was completely disjointed. Once South Africa scored twice and France went one man down, I hope South Africa would drill in 5 goals which would have got them into the next round. And really they could have scored more goals. But as luck would have it, France pulled one back to make it a more respectful 1-2 defeat. Cheers! Ram

Well, the way I see it, France should not have been at the Finals anyway due to Thiery Henry's blatant handball against the Republic of Ireland that "helped" them to qualify. I should imagine all of southern Ireland are partying at this very moment because justice has been done. Having said all that; France were rubbish anyway so I'm glad they've been knocked out. Too much in-fighting and not enough team spirit so "Good Riddance!" I say!

No, not really. I mean, I don't really think it is very surprising that this current French team is not doing so well, so it did not come as a surprise for me. I never thought France would go very far in this tournament (there are just so many teams that don't have the issues that they do, and can concentrate on the game itself) and I still don't.
