France – Germany: start of the decisive matches at the 2024 Olympic Games

In Pierre-Mauroy, in Villeneuve-d'Ascq, France challenges, this Tuesday, August 6, ;ucirc;t, Germany. The winner will reach the semi-finals of the 2024 Olympics.

A change of venue, and a change of atmosphere. Handball and the small world of the 2024 Olympic Games have migrated from Paris to Villeneuve d'Ascq and its Pierre-Mauroy venue. And this time, there will be no more safety net for the nations still involved. In the quarter-finals, France, the only undefeated country in the group stage, will meet Germany, which has not really shone since his arrival in France (only one success). 

However, coach Olivier Krumbholz called for the greatest vigilance ahead of this France – Germany match: “There is no ideal opponent. Germany is a good team, strong at the back, who are very physically committed and play a lot in overflows. We will have to fight and hold the defensive duels because that plays a lot in strength. I have been saying for six months that everyone that we are going to play Germany in the quarter-finals, I am not surprised. By taking this group, I knew that we would go towards an extremely difficult quarter-final. It is the obligatory passage. In the other group, Norway is in the lead. It is up to us to get through the next two matches to find ourselves in the final… and perhaps against Norway.”

Unfortunately, this first qualifying match is taking place without Léna Grandveau. The center half injured the ring finger of her left hand in a collision during a confused offensive action last Saturday during the victory against Spain (32-24). She is replaced numerically by an experienced player in the person of Grâce Zaadi Deuna. The reserve has already played in these 2024 Olympic Games. Against Angola, she had taken the place of Nocandy, victim of a KO.
