Renard's First reaction on Saudi Arabia's departure 

French coach Hervé Renard has resigned as Saudi Arabia’s coach, the Saudi Arabian Football Federation (SAFF) said on Tuesday, as he prepares to become head coach of France’s women’s team ahead of the upcoming FIFA Women’s World Cup. Renard applauded all the individuals who supported him in his career with the Saudi national team, which began in 2019 after he resigned from his position after the end of the Bolivia confrontation. The Saudi national team lost its last match under the leadership of Renard, who is preparing to take over the position of coach of the French women's national team against the Bolivian national team 2-1 in the friendly game. “I would like to thank everybody in Saudi for their support during almost four years,” Renard told reporters after a 2-1 defeat to Bolivia on Tuesday.“I think I did the maximum with the team. I can’t reach another level so I prefer to be honest with everybody. Thank you again, it was a fantastic time.” Renard talked about his experience with the Saudi Greens, saying: “In the qualifiers, we achieved great success and led against Japan and Australia to qualify for the Qatar World Cup 2022. Our experience together was wonderful. We started our match against the Argentine national team. I think it will remain immortal in the memory of the Saudi fans. We also played a great match against Poland, but unfortunately, We didn't get a good result so this is a great experience with great support." He concluded, saying: "I wish success to the Saudi national team in the upcoming Asian Cup in Qatar. I will support you, and certainly, if I am able to be in the stands in this tournament, I will support the Saudi national team, because you will always remain in my heart."
