Domenech hits out at media spying after Ribery riddle

FRANCE coach Raymond Domenech has launched a blistering attack on the country’s media for spying on a closed training session.

Reports in the French media, based on information gleaned from a session that was off limits to the media in Aerzen, suggested — correctly it later emerged — that 23-year-old Franck Ribery and Sylvain Wiltord could start today’s World Cup opener against Switzerland.

Domenech did not confirm the truth or otherwise of the reports but made it clear that he took a dim view of such activity.
