After an inaugural victory against North Macedonia and a draw against Switzerland on Sunday, the French handball team challenges the host country of Euro 2024, Germany, this Tuesday evening. Decisive match for the Blues who are playing their qualification for the main round… Poster information.
Decisive match for the Blues! After a good start to this Euro last Wednesday against North Macedonia (39-29), the Blues did not go far from the “disappointment” this Sunday. Opposed to Switzerland, the French team dominated the entire match before finally conceding the draw (26-26). Assistant coach to coach Guillaume Gille, Erick Mathé expects a start from the Mannschaft after winning the last confrontation during the quarter-final at the World Cup in Poland (35-28): “This team is stable in what it offers and it benefits from additional enthusiasm by playing this Euro at home. The defense is compact and solid in front of its goalkeeper Andreas Wolff. With the series of defeats against us, I think that the German aggressiveness cursor will rise again: they say to themselves that perhaps this is the moment. It is up to us to demonstrate that our performance against Switzerland was not our true face. Because if we talk about the ‘Germany, we must also look in front of our door and imagine the behavior of our team on Tuesday evening.’
After the draw against Switzerland, Ludovic Fabregas returned to the French team’s poor performance, looking ahead to the “final” against Germany in this preliminary round: “Not having won this match is a bit of a blow to our morale. We still have our destiny in our hands against Germany but it’s a real wake-up call. It could be a reminder, and if it gets us going again better in this Euro, so much the better. But if this is the start of something that squeaks a little, that would be damaging.” For this last group match, Guillaume Gille will do without three new players as in the first two matches.
