Julie Morel (born August 6, 1982 in Saint-Germain-en-Laye ) is a former French football player .

Club career

Julie Morel spent part of her childhood and youth in Lower Normandy , where she played football for smaller clubs in and around Saint-Lô . In 1999 she joined the second division ES Cormelles-le-Royal , with whom she rose to the top French league for the 2000/01 season . The women were relegated from it after only one season, but the 1.57 m tall midfielder stayed with her team for another three years. She only changed clubs in 2004 when another team from the region, FCF Condé-sur-Noireau, rose to Division 1. The Condéennes, however, developed into a veritable "elevator team", which in Morels' local five seasons commuted between the first and second division every year. In the state cup competition, too, her wiveships were mostly eliminated early in these years. Only in 2006 and 2009 made it into the quarterfinals twice.

From 2009 she played, in the first year among other things at the side of the young goal scorer Eugénie Le Sommer , for the Breton first division club Stade Briochin . When his women's eleven joined the neighboring EA Guingamp in 2011 , Julie Morel also took this step. 2012 was followed by her most successful year in sport, when she was named the best D1 player of the season by the French Football Association in the summer - even though Guingamp was only at home in the middle of the table - and was even allowed to wear the national dress a little later (see below) .

However, this positive period ended abruptly: shortly after the start of the second half of the season in January 2013, EA Guingamp waived the further involvement of its captain . Morel then rejoined the second division FCF Condé for the rest of the season, before AS Saint-Étienne signed them at the beginning of the 2013/14 season , with whose women they could only secure relegation on the last matchday and continue to play first-class. Shortly before the winter break in 2014/15, however, she tore a ligament that put her out of action for a long time. Nevertheless, the club has extended the contract with Morel, who trains young people in the ASSE football school, until 2016.

In the summer of 2016, Julie Morel ended her two-decade career, in which she played at least 165 games in the first and 34 in the second division and scored 49 goals (36 in D1, 13 in D2).

National player

Julie Morel did not play for any of the national age group selection teams as a teenager. In June 2009, however, she played for France A ' (that's the name of the B women's national team) against Tunisia , in which coach Bruno Bini replaced her, like five other teammates, at half-time.

When France's A-women met the Irish in qualifying for the European Championship in Guingamp (September 2012), Bini called the midfielder into his squad. Nine minutes before the final whistle, the 30-year-old then stepped onto the lawn for Camille Abily at the Stade de Roudourou , which was filled with a good 10,000 spectators , and only five minutes later she converted an assist from Eugénie Le Sommer to make it 4-0. A month later she was nominated again for a course for the French A and B squad, but this "late, double debut" has been Morel's only A international match so far. (As of December 28, 2014)
