French handball players came considerably closer to qualifying for the Tokyo Olympics (July 23-August 8) by outclassing a weak Tunisia team 40 to 29 on Saturday night at the Sud de France Arena in Montpellier.

With two victories on the clock in this TQO, after the inaugural success against Croatia (30-26), the French have a wild card for their last match against Portugal on Sunday evening (9 p.m.): they can afford to lose six goals (or seven if they score 22 or more) to qualify for the 2020 Olympics this summer.
