Installation "celebrating" the national football team

There is nothing to add on the fiasco of the French national team during the football FIFA World Cup organized in South Africa in June- July 2010.
A flag display set up near Lamballe (Brittany), along the Rennes-Brest speedway, summarized quite well the general impression of disgust and shame following the brilliant campaign. The flags of the four nations competing in Group A (South Africa, France, Mexico, Uruguay) were displayed in a line, with the French flag half-staffed.
