Revenge of 2017
The last time that France challenged Norway in a major international competition (therefore excluding the Golden League), it was a finalist for a World Championship, in 2017. At the time, at the end of 'a stifling match, the French defense had ended up stifling the Norwegian attack to win a second star (23-21).

Estelle Nze Minko, best player of the competition
The left-back of the France team was named best player of the Euro, even before this final against Norway, announced Sunday the European Federation.
Two years ago, Estelle Nze Minko had achieved an excellent Euro 2018 with an insolent 83% shooting success (38 goals), but she had missed the MVP title, awarded to the Russian Anna Vyakhireva, also before the final won by France (24-21).
In Denmark, the 29-year-old Frenchwoman returned to her attack level, approaching her Euro 2018 statistics (68% success with 25 goals before the final).
She also impresses by the pressure she exerts at all times in defense on the opponents, with interceptions (6) and goals on the counterattack (10).
🌟 Here they are - the # ehfeuro2020 All-star Team!

Norwegian ogre
Unlike the totally controlled semi-final (30-19) against the Croats who were living their first last four in a major international competition, the Blue will not approach this final as favorites.
A status that goes to the Scandinavians, victorious in their seven matches in the competition, most of them with significant gaps (+19 against Germany in particular!).
