THE ESSENTIAL 

  • Les Bleues qualified for the quarter-finals of the World Basketball after finishing fourth in Group B behind Serbia, Canada and Australia.

  • Deprived of many executives due to injury, the French are led by the Franco-American Gabby Williams and carried by the passion of youth. 

  • To earn their place in the last four, Jean-Aimé Toupane's daughters will have to beat China, no small feat for Les Bleues. 

China, then.

Beaten by Serbia in their last pool match, when a victory could offer them a less hairy part of the table, the French finally inherited China while the specter of the Americans lurked.

We will therefore say that we are not doing so badly.

Even if this opposition is still likely to be quite full-bodied.

But you never know.

Expected by almost no one at the start of the Euro due to the absence of the main executives, the Blues, led by a Gabby Williamas on fire, like to thwart the predictions and shut mouths.

So have fun, ladies.
