Luc Abalo's opinion on Switzerland and ... more
"Switzerland is a team that will perhaps play at 7 (field players), it is a problem that we did not have the habit of solving. But today, the hand is quite particular, everyone plays very well and understands what is possible.
Afterwards, it doesn't play out much, individual exploits.
We don't know the outcome of this competition. We just have to stay positive in our heads and during a match, not lose track. "

All of a trap match
For France, however, this third match could be a perfect trap, facing a formation drafted at the last minute due to the withdrawal of the United States, which will therefore have nothing to lose, especially since it has already qualified for the main round. after its inaugural success over Austria (28-25).

France wants to refuel
Even if they are already qualified for the main round, the Blues want to chain a third victory in a row after those conquered against Norway (28-24) and Austria (35-28).
Especially that a victory on Monday would allow them to start the rest with the maximum number of points, namely four.
