At the Pierre-Mauroy stadium in Villeneuve-d’Ascq, the French team, led by its star Wembanyama, ends its group stage of the 2024 Olympics with a summit against Germany.
Having come close to defeat against Japan in their last outing in these JO 2024the Blues are moving forward with little confidence in this France – Germany clash. Despite this, the essentials are assured for Wembanyama’s gang who are certain to participate in the quarter-finals of the queen of competitions. Nevertheless, facing the nation from across the Rhine, there is a big stake: the winner will obtain the place of leader of group B which offers an easier route to the final phase.
NBA star Dennis Schröder’s teammates impressed in their wins over Japan (97-77) and Brazil (86-73). The complete opposite of France, who are causing concern. Evan Fournier wanted to answer these questions: “What status do we have? European vice-champion, Olympic vice-champion: that was 2-3 years ago guys, we play differently, we want to develop a different game. Every year, you start from scratch. I can tell you that when we arrive at the Games, we don’t tell ourselves that we are the third world champion, we don’t care. Every year, it starts from scratch, we have to prove ourselves all the time, we have to be hungry all the time. I say that we have no status. We are outsiders and we try to eat.” So, let’s eat!
