French handball players opened the way to the Tokyo Olympics this summer (July 23-August 8) by winning Friday night against Croatia 30 to 26, deemed the most dangerous opponent of the qualifying tournament in Montpellier.

The Blues will continue their TQO on Saturday evening against Tunisia (9 p.m.) and will finish against Portugal on Sunday evening (9 p.m.).

If the French win against Tunisia and Portugal against Croatia, qualification would be guaranteed for the 8th consecutive Olympics.
