The French team is certain to leave the European Badminton Championships with two podiums. All that remains is to know the metal of the medal. Thus, in the men’s singles, Toma Junior Popov took the best in three sets (20/22, 21/14, 21/13) against the Dane HK Vittinghus. In the semi-finals, he will face another Dane, 3rd in the world, Anders Antonsen. Disappointment on the other hand for Brice Leverdez, eliminated in quarters by the Israeli Misha Zilberman (18-21, 15-21). In mixed doubles, Thom Gicquel and Delphine Delrue will also play a semi-final after their victory over the English Jessica Pugh and Callum Hemming (21/15, 17/21, 21/8), where they will face the Dutch Piek / Tabeling. Finally, note in the women’s quarter-final defeat of Xuefei Qi, beaten by the Danish Mia Blichfeldt (21/16, 10/21, 17/21).
