Anthony Réveillère (Template:IPA-fr) (born 10 November 1979) is a French footballer. A pure product of the Rennes youth academy with which he débuted professionally, he plays as an attacking right-back with Olympique Lyonnais and France national team.
Career
Réveillère made his Ligue 1 debut on February 3, 1998 playing for Rennes. After spending six years with Rennes, he made a winter move to the Spanish side Valencia CF. After half a season there, Réveillère made the move back to his birth country signing with then first-time champions Olympique Lyonnais. Since his signing, Lyon have won 5 straight Ligue 1 titles.
To those not following the Olympique Lyonnais, Réveillère's claim to European fame, rather than many of his great performances in the Champions' League including a fantastic assist to Sylvain Wiltord in his club's 3–0 defeat of the Real Madrid in 2005, is his duel with A.S. Roma's Amantino Mancini, who performed six step-overs before blasting past the bewildered defender to double Roma's advantage during the UEFA Champions League last 16 round against the French Champions. The eventual 2–0 victory for Roma was Lyon's first defeat at home in the Champions League for five years.
International career
He has eight caps with the France national team. His first selection was on October 11, 2003 for a game against Israel. He was picked for France's final World Cup 2010 squad.
