A quarter to the taste of the final: France vs Canada, the poster for the final of the 2022 World Cup. At the end of a tight and breathless match until the very last seconds, the tricolor world champions will continue to defend their title Sunday during the last four of the World Cup in Vienna.
” I am relieved, blows Laetitia Guapo (6 pts against Canada). It was hot, we went blow for blow. We knew it was going to be a great match and that it was going to come down to a few small details. We had to stop the Plouffe sisters, we knew they were going to score no matter what. Horti (Hortense Limouzin) and MEP (Marie-Eve Paget) did the job, even if they are smaller, they managed to push them, make them miss balloons. We are gaining momentum, we feel a little better collectively. We know that our defense is our base, we rely on that. »
Australia for a place in the final
In the semi-finals, Les Bleues will face Australia on Sunday. “It’s not a very formatted 3×3 team, it’s certainly one of the axes on which we will have to play, but on the other hand, physically, it is one of the most impressive teams of the tournament, assures Yann Julien, French coach. They play like 5×5, they invest a lot in offensive rebounds. It plays hard, with a lot of one on one. We are going to have to be smarter than that. »
