The French handball players, vice-champions of Europe three months ago, won 26 to 22 thanks to a good end of the match against the Danes, 4th in the last Euro, Thursday in a friendly match in Créteil.
A second preparation match is scheduled for late Saturday afternoon (5:00 p.m.) between the two selections, still in Créteil.
This international window is scheduled until the end of the weekend and is stuck between the knockout stages and the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
Beyond the friendly matches, three Olympic qualifying tournaments are organized in Podgorica (Montenegro), Lliria (Spain) and Györ (Hungary) to distribute the last six tickets for the Tokyo Games in the summer (23 July-8 August ).
France, thanks to its title of European champion at home in 2018, is already qualified, while Denmark failed to qualify for one of the three TQOs.
