PARIS: Under-fire French coach Raymond Domenech received the dreaded vote of confidence on Sunday, just hours after the 1998 world champions suffered another setback in their bid to reach the World Cup.
Saturday's 1-1 draw against Romania in Paris left France, the 2006 runners-up, needing to beat Serbia in Belgrade tomorrow to keep their hopes of automatic qualification alive.
"I repeat: yes, yes, yes. I have to say it three times. He has the job of qualifying us for the World Cup," said French Football Federation (FFF) president Jean-Pierre Escalettes.
