After winning the silver medal at the Rio Olympics in 2016, the French handballers will compete in a new Olympic final on Sunday in Japan. The Swedes were able to defeat Krumblholz in the pool match (28-28).
With the same coach, Olivier Krumbholz, this selection won from 1999, ten medals in major international events, including a first title at the 2003 World Championship in Croatia and a second, fourteen years later, at the 2017 World Championship in Germany, more than a year after winning the silver medal at the 2016 Summer Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Exceptionally, the men’s and women’s national handball teams are world champions in the same year.

This victory allowed them to qualify directly for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, where they have just reached their second consecutive final.

L’équipe nationale de Beach Soccer du Sénégal a perdu la petite finale du mondial de Beach Soccer ce dimanche 29 août 2021. Après avoir été éliminés par le Japon(5-2) en demi-finale, les lions du Sénégal ont été privés de la troisième place par les Suisses(9-7).

Les lions ont créé la sensation en éliminant le Brésil l’une des meilleures équipes du tournoi en quart de finale(5-4).
Le rêve des lions a été brisé par les japonais en demi-finale. Une défaite qui s’explique surtout par le forfait de bon nombres de joueurs sénégalais. Pour la troisième place, les lions faisaient face à la Suisse. Il n’y aura pas de podium pour les Sénégalais à la coupe du monde de Beach soccer, Russie 2021. Les lions de la Teranga se contenteront de la quatrième place de la compétition. La Suisse a dominé les champions d’Afrique (9-) lors du match pour la troisième place.
Malgré tout, les Sénégalais rentrent au bercail après avoir atteint le dernier carré de la coupe du monde de Beach soccer pour la première fois. Une belle performance malgré tout.
