Marie-Ange Kramo
Marie-Ange Kramo (born February 20, 1979 in Toulouse ) is a French soccer player who was active for clubs from her hometown for almost her entire career, which lasted almost two decades.
Club career
Marie-Ange Kramo started playing club football as a girl on the US Ridge Tour . As a 15-year-old she moved to Toulouse to Olympique Mirail and only one year later (1995) to local rival TOAC , whose women's team had just been promoted back to the Championnat National 1 A , the first French league . The midfielder quickly established herself as a regular at TOAC and soon became a youth player and, in 1999, a senior national player (see below) . In the season Championnat National 1 A 1998/99 she won the French championship with the Toulouse OAC, and in the following two seasons Marie Ange-Kramo and her teammates - which also included her younger sister Marie-Joëlle - were able to defend this title, so that at the age of just 22 she was already three times national champion.
In 2001, the successful women's football department of the Olympique Aérospatial Club joined the city's "big (men's) club", the TFC (or Téfécé ) , under whose colors the players who had taken this step won another championship in 2002. In addition, Toulouse's women and with her midfielder Marie-Ange Kramo also prevailed in the French cup competition , which was played for the first time in 2001/02 , so that they were also the first winners of the doublé in women's football history in France. This was also a memorable season for Toulouse, because Toulouse's women completed a successful course in the European Cup - the TFC was also allowed to take the place of the TOAC at European level. Kramo scored the winning goal for their eleven in the quarter-finals against the Arsenal ladies shortly before the end of extra time. In the following round, however, the eventual winner 1. FFC Frankfurt put an end to hopes of a final after two close matches.
Marie-Ange Kramo was also under contract with Téfécé for the next nine years, and although its women finished the regular points round of the first division as leaders in 2003 and 2004, they only ended the subsequent "championship round" of the four best clubs Fourth place. This ended the dominance of the southern French, who only represented a midfield team in the championship. Kramo suffered a complicated injury to the cruciate ligaments in June 2006, which resulted in an extremely long convalescence period, so that she only made 15 league appearances in 2006/07 and 2007/08. When Toulouse even had to relegate to the second division in the summer of 2011, she took this step with them - but not with the TFC, but left the city after 17 years and signed on with the ambitious regional league competitors of ASPTT Albi . When after the season not Albi, but Toulouse rose to the first division, she returned there and played another season at the highest level for the purple-whites , where she was in the starting lineup in all 22 point games; after the immediate relegation, she ended her active career at the age of 34.
Marie-Ange Kramo now works for a property company in the region.

In the national team
In 1998, Marie-Ange Kramo came to two appearances in France's women's A youth selection, in which she also scored one goal. Ten months later, in May 1999, she made her debut against Switzerland in the French national team . However, it took almost three years until her second appearance in the blue dress. From the spring of 2002, the national coach Élisabeth Loisel considered the midfielder, however, regularly, who came to 42 other internationals in the following four and a half years. These included a number of appearances at the two continental tournaments for which the French had qualified under Loisel. At the 2003 World Cup finals , Kramo came on as a substitute for Norway , against South Korea and Brazil she was in the starting line-up, at the European Championship two years later she was used in the two group games against Norway and Germany .
Three and a quarter years then passed under Loisel's successor, Bruno Bini , before she played her 44th and last international match, a friendly against Japan , in August 2009 ; she has never scored a goal in this circle. Two months before this "farewell game", Bini Marie-Ange Kramo had already tested in the French B-Elf against Tunisia .
