Congratulations Coupet and Abidal for Making Euro XI

February 17th, 2007 | By: Laurie | 2 Comments »

Congratulations to Bleus’ left-back Eric Abidal and goalkeeper Grégory Coupet, who have both been selected “to join the Europe XI in the European celebration match against Manchester United FC at Old Trafford, Manchester on 13 March.”

I’ve been searching for more info on the remainder of the team, but all I can find is this article about team members from Lyon — Abidal, Coupet and Juninho (who I also adore, but who is not French.) For all I know, there could be a bunch of other French players who are also on the team.

Anybody who has more info, let me know!

(P.S. Does anybody else think Coupet should go back to this California surfer dude look?)

David Beckham, Jamie Carragher, and Steven Gerrard have also been selected so far. Lippi is taking his sweet time with making selections :(
