Élodie Ramos (2014)

Élodie Ramos (born March 13, 1983 in Aix-en-Provence ) is a former French football player . She was continuously active for HSC Montpellier from 2002 to 2014 - an example of club loyalty that is no longer commonplace in women's football these days - and has won two national championship and three national cup titles during this time. Then until the end of her career she wore the dress of the FF Nîmes Métropole Gard .

Club career

Élodie Ramos started playing soccer as a girl at US Mineurs Meyreuil , a small club in the neighborhood of Aix-en-Provence. At the age of 14, she moved to Marseille to Celtic Beaumont , with whose first team she was promoted to the Championnat National 1 A , France's highest women's league, in the summer of 2000 , but was relegated again after ten months. Ramos, on the other hand, who had repeatedly been called up to the A youth national team during her time in Marseille, continued to play first-class afterwards because SC Schiltigheim had brought her. At the end of the 2001/02 season , Schiltigheim also had to go to the second division , but the only 1.57 m tall striker had  proven her dangerousness with 13 goals - that was more than half of all hits by the Alsatians - and returned to southern France back.

From 2002 she wore the Montpellier HSC dress and, thanks to her goals, played a major role in ensuring that the women from Languedoc were consistently one of the four top teams in the league, which has now been renamed Division 1 Féminine . When the MHSC won the French championship title in 2004 and 2005, Élodie Ramos - who also became a national team player in 2003 (see below)  - had not missed a single league game and was Division 1 Féminine 2004/05 with 17 goals the second most successful goalscorer in the Become league. She benefited from the fact that the coaches Régis Durand and Daniel Rey played with two real storm tips and Ramos with Hoda Lattaf and a little later Élodie Thomis had at least one other dangerous attacker at her side. She herself regularly achieved double-digit hits in the following seasons; In 2008/09 there were even 19, making her the third best shooter in the league. With Marie-Laure Delie , the MHSC had put a new, also very dangerous striker next to her at this point.

In addition to the two championships, she was runner-up with Montpellier three times and also won the national cup in 2006, 2007 and 2009 , in the final of which Élodie Ramos was also in four other seasons. In the Cup victory in 2007 , she scored a goal in regular time and kept her nerve in the penalty shoot-out required after 90 minutes by converting the first penalty, while the shooters from opponent Olympique Lyon then all missed. For the final, the 2009 coach had Sarah M'Barek Ramos to captain was appointed, so that after the final whistle the Cup trophy as the first in the hands take.
In the following three years, however, she only played about a third of Montpellier's encounters before she was back in the regular formation of the women's team since 2012. By the end of February 2014, she had scored 130 goals in over 230 competitive games for this club.

In the European Cup , Élodie Ramos has appeared in a total of 23 games and scored 13 goals. However, the MHSC never reached a final at this level, but was always eliminated early - in 2004/05 already after the second group stage, in 2005/06 only in the semi-finals and in 2009/10 in the quarter-finals, albeit against the 1. FFC in 2006 Frankfurt and 2010 against Umeå IK only because of the away goals rule .

In the summer of 2014, she and her long-time teammates Ludivine Diguelman and Ophélie Meilleroux moved to the second division FF Nîmes Métropole Gard , where she made a significant contribution to promotion to the first division with her 21 goals this season. After the immediate relegation, she played for this club for another year in the second division before ending her career in 2017.

In the national team

At the first international missions Élodie Ramos had come already in her time at Marseille when they are 18 girls U-within the framework of the spring of 2001 with the French vintage European Championship played in three games against the Spanish, Swedish and English peers and in each of these games a hit scored. The following year she was vice European champion at the U-19 finals in Sweden ; In the final, France lost to Germany 1: 3. Ramos also took part in the U-19 World Cup in Canada in 2002 , where the French were eliminated after the preliminary round. When France's female A youth won the European Championship a year later , Élodie Ramos was already too old for this selection.

But the national coach Élisabeth Loisel used them in February 2003 at two games of the French national team against China and the Netherlands . After that, however, Loisel did not call her, despite her success with the club, nor did she nominate her for France's 2003 World Cup , but relied on her teammate Hoda Lattaf at the side of the undisputed striker Marinette Pichon . At the end of 2006, Ramos showed that their qualities could still be relied on; with the U-21s she played a friendly against England and headed the French equalizer shortly before the final whistle.

Only after Pichon's resignation and under Loisel's successor Bruno Bini was Ramos allowed to wear the blue dress again; between March 2007 and December 2008, the number of their internationals increased to nine. During this time, she managed her only goal for the Bleues when she scored France's consolation goal in the 2007 Algarve Cup in a 3-1 draw against Sweden , again with a header - just two minutes after being substituted on. In games against women from German-speaking countries, Élodie Ramos was never on the pitch.

In 2015, the now 32-year-old returned to the international stage with a French selection. With the national women's military team, whose coach is Elisabeth Loisel, she takes part in the military world championship in Mungyeong , South Korea, in October of that year .
