France will begin their World Cup adventure with a challenging clash against CONCACAF side Jamaica.
The French, currently ranked fifth in the world, have endured a turbulent year that has seen a coach sacked due to a player revolt, though the dust appears to have settled and the team are ready for a strong World Cup under Herve Renard.
Jamaica know they are underdogs in a group also containing Brazil, but will have confidence that star attacker Kadija Shaw will be able to pop up with an important goal or game changing performance.
France know they have to win this game to have a realistic chance of topping the group and avoiding a harder round of 16 clash should they qualify.
