France striker Nicolas Anelka has been sent home from the FIFA World Cup after refusing to apologise for his half-time rant at coach Raymond Domenech.
The Chelsea forward was not at training today after the bust-up during Thursday's 2-0 defeat by Mexico, which saw him substituted at the interval. Anelka was asked to apologise by French Football Federation president Jean-Pierre Escalettes and, upon refusing to do so, was asked to leave the squad. "He will leave the Team France camp this evening," said a statement on fff.fr.
The question now is, if the rest of the team will also go home after the next game? Good luck anyway for the grande Nation.
