5.15pm

5.15pm

: We waited a bit to see how the Blue were doing in this Euro before starting ... And beh we were not disappointed.

The memory of the failure at the World Cup last year has been put away, the players of Olivier Krumbholz, reigning European champions, have resumed their good habits of recent years. 

5:15 p.m .

Hi everyone.

We declare the live hand season open! 

No time to breathe.

Not even 24 hours after having fought a big battle - won - against Spain, the French handball team faces Russia.

The stake is simple for this second match of the main round: a victory and the Blue will have their napkin ring in the last four of the Euro.

It will be anything but simple.

Already because the organizers really did not give France a gift by inflicting this very tight schedule on her when she had finished first in her group in the first round.

And then because Russia, reigning Olympic champion and 2018 European vice-champion (beaten by the Blue), is a big chunk.

But Olivier Krumbholz's players have proven to be resourceful. 

>> See you at 6:00 p.m. to follow this match together ...
