The news fell on Wednesday afternoon: on the road to Les Bleues will be Sweden in the semi-final of the handball world championship. The Swedes easily defeated Germany earlier in the day, with a score of 27 to 20.
The Blues logically won against the Czech Republic on Tuesday (33-22). They will seek to carve out the road to a third global coronation, after 2003 and 2017. The Swedes, in the event of victory, could compete in the first final of a world championship in their history.
The meeting, scheduled for Friday evening at 9:00 p.m., will be broadcast on beIN Sport 1. It will also be followed live with commentary on our Figaro website.
