Beckenbauer blasts poor France
Posted Saturday, June 19, 2010 by PA
Germany legend Franz Beckenbauer has turned his anger on France after their dismal 2-0 defeat against Mexico left them on the verge of an early exit.
Having previously lambasted England for "going backwards", the 64-year-old has now laid into Raymond Domenech's team.
"The French are - for the moment - the biggest disappointment of the World Cup," said Beckenbauer, who won the World Cup both as a player and as a coach. "The manner in which they played (against Mexico), is unworthy of a World Cup, it looked more like they were playing in a warm-up match."
