France Domenech Does Not Believe in Scorpios

Diego Maradona may be one of the greatest football players of all times but he would not have much chance in the line-up of the French team, led by Raymond Domenech.

The astrology buff has publicly stated he dislikes the people born under the Scorpio sign, which happens to be the case with Maradona.

Domenech's scepticism towards the traits of Scorpio people came to the foreground after he refused to pick Ludovic Giuly, Johan Micoud and Robert Pires. Pires has the misfortune of being born under the Scorpio sign.

So far he had weathered a media storm and gone against the tide of public opinion ever since he was installed as coach after the debacle of Euro 2004.

The French coach could have proved he has been right all along if it was not for the missed penalty in the final against Italy.
