In Pierre-Mauroy, in Villeneuve-d’Ascq, the French handball team will face Germany this Wednesday, August 7, in the quarter-finals of the 2024 Olympic Games.
Inside in the group stage of these JO 2024France now moves on to the revealer of the final phase. Nikola Karabatic’s gang thus finds Germany, like the women’s handball team yesterday, with the hope of reaching the semi-finals of the queen of competitions. And despite sluggish performances, coach Guillaume Gille was not worried before this France – Germany: “We have the impression that things are moving forward, falling into place. Playing perfectly, we don’t care! We are here to win a balance of power. We had to dig in our heels, tighten up to find the resources. It is not easy in this decorum to miss our start to the Games. Now, it’s been a long time since we have seen the Germans so dashing, so powerful and so confident. We know that it is a huge shock that awaits us in Lille.”
For the captain of the French team, Luka Karabatic, the Blues have changed status in these 2024 Olympic Games over the course of a delicate journey: “We continue the competition in pain. We continue to lay stones. We know that it is not easy. We arrive in the quarter-finals not with the status of favorite but with the status of a team that must not give up, fight on all attacks, defenses, on all balls. We have confidence in our team.”
