France coach Raymond Domenech has said some of his players may refuse to face South Africa because of Nicolas Anelka's expulsion from the squad.
The Chelsea striker was sent home for verbally abusing Domenech during last week's 2-0 defeat by Mexico.
Domenech also labelled the players' decision to boycott Sunday's training session as "an aberration".
They refused to take part in protest at Anelka's expulsion, in a situation that has escalated to such an extent the French government have felt the necessity to intervene.
France are on the verge of making an early World Cup exit, having picked up only one point from two games.
They need to beat South Africa on Tuesday by a large score and hope that Uruguay and Mexico do not draw their match.
