By taking the scalp of Norway, the French handball team will face the Czech Republic in the quarter-finals.
The French handball team is increasing the pressure! After a timid first match against Angola, the Blues delivered an XXL performance this Sunday evening to take the scalp of Norway, the reigning world champion who is playing at home. As a result, Les Bleues finished in first place in the group and will face the Czech Republic for a place in the semi-finals of the world championships. But be careful, the Czechs are not there by chance and they overcame the Spanish to finish in second place in the group.
We wanted to finish first, obviously, but we have a lot of respect for the Czech Republic. We have confirmation of our potential and we can even say that we are setting a date, for the quarters perhaps, for the semis too, but above all for later,” launched coach Olivier Krumbholz after the match.
