France will be without Marie-Antoinette Katoto in their Nations League clash with Sweden. The Lyon striker injured the back of her left thigh in this weekend's league match against Strasbourg.

Katoto arrived at the French national team's Clairefontaine base on Monday, where it was determined that she would not be fit for the match against Sweden. The 27-year-old goal scorer will not be replaced in the squad, the French Football Federation said.

At the same time, the blue and yellow have gathered to recharge on the Portuguese Algarve coast, for the second national team training camp under new national team captain Tony Gustavsson.

Sweden and France will first meet in Reims on Friday and then at 3 Arena in Stockholm next Tuesday, in a double match for third place in the Nations League.
