Anthony Réveillère (born November 10, 1979 in Doué-la-Fontaine) is a football player from France. A pure product of the Stade Rennais youth academy with which he débuted professionally, he plays right-back with Olympique Lyonnais and France national team.

Trivia

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 unfortunately his duel with A.S. Roma's Amantino Mancini, who performed 5 step-overs before blasting past the bewildered defender to double Roma's advantage during the UEFA Champions League last 16 round against the then French Champions. The eventual 2-0 victory for Roma was Lyon's first defeat at home in the Champions League for 5 years.

Clubs

He played his first game in French Ligue 1 championship on february 3, 1998.

He is a two-time French Ligue 1 champion with Olympique Lyonnais and played a quarter-final of UEFA Champions League 2004-05.

National team

He has five caps with the France national team. His first selection was on October 11, 2003 for a game against Israel.
