France coach Didier Deschamps on Thursday announced a 23-strong squad for friendly away matches against Uruguay on June 5 and Brazil four days later: Goalkeepers: Mickael Landreau (Bastia), Hugo Lloris (Tottenham/ENG), Steve Mandanda (Marseille) Defenders: Gael Clichy (Manchester City/ENG), Jeremy Mathieu (Valencia/ESP), Mathieu Debuchy (Newcastle/ENG), Bacary Sagna (Arsenal/ENG), Laurent Koscielny (Arsenal/ENG), Mamadou Sakho (Paris Saint-Germain), Eliaquim Mangala (Porto/POR), Adil Rami (Valencia/ESP)

Galatasaray striker Didier Drogba has hit out at racist Fenerbahce fans who bombarded him and fellow Ivorian Emmanuel Eboue with monkey chants during the two sides meeting last weekend. The former Chelsea star posted a message on the Turkish champions' Facebook page and also published a photograph depicting Charles Darwin's theory of evolution on the social media site Instagram. "You call me a monkey but you cried when Chelsea beat Fenerbahce in 2008, you called me monkey but you jumped in front of your screen when I won the Champions League," Drogba wrote.

Relegation-threatened Evian put aside their Ligue 1 woes to reach the final of the French Cup for the first time as they swept past Lorient 4-0 on Wednesday. Milos Ninkovic, Yannick Sagbo and Kevin Berigaud struck first-half goals at the Parc des Sports, while Nadjib Baouia added a late fourth in Annecy to set up a May 31 date in Paris with either Troyes or Bordeaux, whose match was put back a week after Tuesday's scheduled clash was postponed due to the risk of flooding.

Paris Saint-Germain sealed their first Ligue 1 title since 1994 with a 1-0 win at Lyon on Sunday. Marseille's 2-1 win over Toulouse on Saturday, their fourth success in a row, had ensured PSG would have to keep the champagne on ice until after their own game. But former AC Milan winger Jeremy Menez scored the only goal of the game against a limp Lyon side and that proved enough to deliver the silverware. PSG were by far the better side on a night where third-placed Lyon also had much to play for as they look to seal a place in next season's Champions League.
