From what I've noticed, quite interested and enthusiastic, but not as if it were their own soccer team playing Marseille (as is the case tonight. Everyone in every bar is GLUED to the TV)
But The French, who generally know rather little about Vancouver, were surprised to see the shots of the city and mountains, and said "what a beautiful city!!" and so on. Generally positive, but as I said, not as if it were their home city football team playing.
(I might mention that it is surprising, here in Paris, to find out just how many French people HAVE been to Vancouver. They all seem to like it, and they all love the scenery)
