French volleyball players are guaranteed to play in the quarter-finals of the Tokyo Olympics with at least two sets won against the Brazilians this Sunday.
Even in the event of a defeat in this meeting, where the two teams will explain themselves during the tie-break, France cannot finish beyond fourth place in the group, a necessary condition to be part of the best eight teams of the Games.
The French, qualified for the second time in a row in the Olympics, will play in the quarter-finals for the first time in their history on Tuesday. And can still dream of a medal for the last competition of their trainer Laurent Tillie.
