Time for the semi-finals of these European Championships in Albertville. Only shocks in sight, the four teams come to seek gold and the star-spangled jersey…
Barely 30 minutes following the start of the quarter-finals, France became the first nation to qualify for the semi-finals. It must be said that Finland was simply powerless once morest the Blues. “Sparrow” Feltain and his teammates make Fanny the Scandinavians (13-0), and reach the last four. This is a second medal assured for the French team. This Saturday morning, Ligan Doerr has already won bronze in precision shooting.
Monaco once morest the Blues
For a place in the final, it is Monaco which comes to challenge France. After their victories once morest Austria (13-0), then Poland (13-4), the players from the Principality continue their journey without incident. A solid team stands on the road to the Blues. With the experienced Jean-Pierre Le Lons and Denis Olmos, Monaco is not to be taken lightly. Especially with a medal already in their pocket, the Monegasques have no more pressure.
Belgium – Italy, shock at the top
The other semi-final also promises very good opposition. Defending holder Italy finally managed to defeat Sweden (13-8). Diego Rizzi’s band continues its journey towards the double. Against the Squadra Azzura, Belgium moves forward with confidence. Quite simply first at the end of the groups, Claudy Weibel and his team won a hard-fought battle once morest Switzerland (13-9) in the quarters. Enough to further affirm the qualities of this team, gifted in shooting and tactics. Note that Italy is under the “permanent” yellow card, for sanctioning behavior. A detail that might weigh in the balance…
