Former France coach Raymond Domenech made his coaching comeback on Saturday, at the helm of an under-11s team from a suburb west of Paris. <img alt="" src="/imagedata/2010/nov/21domenech.jpg" align="right" border="0" />Domenech, sacked as coach of France after their disastrous World Cup campaign, has voluntarily offered to coach one of the junior teams at Athletic Club de Boulogne-Billancourt. His first engagement saw his new side win 6-1 against the under-11s team of Suresnes. "I need to breathe, to reconstruct myself," a relaxed Domenech told reporters before the match at the Maurice-Hubert stadium in Rueil-Malmaison. "I spent six years in a difficult job. A page has been turned and I want to enjoy myself." The 58-year-old, who is claiming damages from the French Football Federation over his dismissal, said he will work with the youngsters "until the end of the year". "It's been a long time since I had so much fun," Domenech explained, adding that, compared to coaching adults, "there is not that demand for results".
