France overthrows the United States and signs a historic first!

The Team de France writes history against the United States in the quarter-finals of the World Cup (89-79)! The French have just eliminated an undefeated team in official match since 2006. The Blues are spinning in the semifinals, Team USA is on the mat.

On the floor, the French have demonstrated to the world their talent. While mastering, our Blues dominated the USA during most of the match. Only fright, the decline of rhythm during the 3rd quarter. While Fournier (22 points) and his band led by 10 points, Donovan Mitchell (31 points) raised his level to tip the advantage in favor of Americans (+7). But that was without counting on the mental solidity of the tricolores. The fourth quarter, mastered with a master hand, was fatal for the USA. Led by a Rudy Gobert of the big days (21 points, 16 rebounds, 3 cons), France concludes the meeting by a bloody +10 (89-79). The sequel looks equally exciting as our team will face Argentina on Friday in the semifinals of the World Cup.
