Kick-off of Euro 2024 for the Tricolores! The French handball team begins its continental competition this Thursday, which runs until December 15, between Austria, Hungary and Switzerland, with an opposition against Poland, in Basel (Switzerland).
Less than four months after touching Olympic gold with their fingertips after a final lost to Norway (29-21), the Blues are already getting down to business and ideally want to get started. The reigning world champions and Olympic vice-champions will also face Spain (November 30), then Portugal (December 2), in this rather tough Group C, to try to reach the main round.
The last European Championship was hard to swallow for the new players of Sébastien Gardillou (replacing Olivier Krumbholz), fourth and who have been chasing a European coronation since 2018. Before starting the Euro, the French had repeated a last time their ranges with a 30-24 success against Angola on the occasion of the second edition of the Tournoi de France, completed with a mixed record (1 victory, 1 defeat).
The France-Poland kick-off is scheduled for 8:30 p.m. this Thursday, November 28. The match will be watched on television on TFX and BeIN Sports 1.
