A fine piece of political correctness I just found there:

Ever wondered if this lack of enthusiasm weren't related to the fact that the French aren't interested with a team they can't identify with?In France, the relationship between a sports event and a sense of national identity tends to be sensitive. In general, whether such an event strengthens a sense of national identity depends on the result. This is because the French are largely suspicious of the notion of national pride. They support the national team but typically consider their events with some detachment. In comparison with other countries, such as the Netherlands or England, there are very few French supporters who travel abroad to watch and encourage the French team.
