Hand – 2024 Olympic Games: Disaster assured for the French team?

Holder of a Master’s degree in international law, I realized at the end of my university career that it was important to evolve in a field that you appreciate. Overnight, I decided to put an end to my parents’ dream, who saw in me a future lawyer, to make a living from my passion: sport. Since then, I have covered transfer windows and sports news, trying to keep readers informed as best as possible.

The French handball team achieved the best preparation for the Olympic Games by winning the Euro at the end of the suspense. But if the Blues want to dress in gold in Paris, perhaps they should have left the victory to Denmark. Because since the creation of the European Championships in 1994, no team has achieved the Euro-JO double in the same year. Guillaume Gille’s men will once again have to write history.

After the Bronzed, the Strong or even the Experts, we will have to find a new nickname to describe the group of Guillaume Gille. Miraculous in the semi-final after a free kick from spaceElohim to eat THE Blues won the final against Denmark (33-31 after overtime). L’French team could not dream of better preparation for the Paris Olympic Games in six months. This Euro can even be considered a real dress rehearsal given that the other favorites are in Europe (Sweden, Denmark, Germany to recite nobody else but them). Throughout the competition, the players tried to evacuate the subject JOpresent on the lips of all journalists, to focus on this Euro. But now the road to Olympic competition has begun.

The Blues will have to break the curse

In the event of victory at Paris, the French team could make history once again. Because since the creation of‘Euro handball in 1994, no winner managed to follow up with a victory in the Olympic Games. The France has never won this competition in an Olympic year (2006, 2010, 2014), but others have broken their teeth like Denmark in 2008 or‘Germany in 2012, absent from the podium Beijing and to London.

The French team is ready

When asked about this curse that affects the winners of theEuro, Luka Karabatic preferred to approach the problem in reverse. “ Usually, we lost at the Euros and we achieved great things at the Games. It’s up to us not to do the opposite. Teams like Sweden and Denmark will arrive with revenge. But we showed our mental strength » confided the executive of the‘French team. But with handball players, impossible is not French.
