Within the framework of the 1/2 final of the OI-2020, France and Egypt will come face to face. Will the Egyptians be able to present a surprise?
France
France came out of Group A from the first place, having won four victories with one defeat. However, it is not necessary to focus on the loss, since it happened in the final round of the group stage, in which the French no longer had motivation and were guaranteed to be the first. As for the first match in the playoffs, France was expected to easily deal with Bahrain in it, hitting its goal 42 times and conceding 28.
Egypt
He was close to winning in Group B and Egypt, but still finished second, having suffered a single defeat from Denmark (27-32), which eventually turned out to be the first. In general, the Egyptians are holding the Olympics very powerfully, having already won five times. At the same time, each of the victories was obtained with a confident margin, and the minimum was in the confrontation with Japan - plus four (33-29). In the quarterfinals, Egypt again performed confidently: it missed 26 from Germany, but scored 31 in response.
Statistics and figures:
- France suffered one defeat with five victories;
- Egypt won in five out of six matches;
- France won against Egypt in all seven face-to-face confrontations.
Forecast
Despite the fact that the Egyptian national team is quite strong, it has never won against France-seven matches and defeats in all. I believe that the time has come to break such a disappointing streak and achieve a historic first victory, besides, the current form allows the Egyptians to count on success.
