00:00They are facing the USA team in the final. We will meet at the Arena Bercy Cédric Ferreira.

00:05Hello. Cédric, we saw it yesterday, the Blues have not gone far from the miracle against the United States.

00:12And it's not going to be easy for the women either.

00:17Mission impossible, act 2.

00:19Indeed, the Blues, who were already facing a mountain on the men's side,

00:23they lost against the United States.

00:25And the French women's team has an even more dizzying challenge to overcome.

00:30Imagine that the Americans have not lost to the Olympic Games since 1992.

00:3632 years, they remain on 60 wins in a row at the Olympic Games.

00:41And if we take a wider spectrum, over the last 50 years, they have only lost 3 matches.

00:46A superiority embodied by the player Diana Taurasi, who aims for her 6th personal gold medal.

00:50So how to do for the French team?

00:52Well, first of all, defend very hard and be aggressive.

00:55Jean-Aimé Toupane, the selector of the Blues,

00:58who managed to build a very solid team during these Olympic Games.

01:02We will also need the class of Gabby Williams, the very effective player in the semi-final against Belgium.

01:08She has a special story, she was born in the United States, but she represents the French team today.

01:13After the bronze in Tokyo, she aims for her very first gold medal with the French team.

01:18We also note that this match has a stake for the medal table,

01:21since it is the very last competition of these Olympic Games in Paris.

01:24If the United States wins, they will finish in first place in front of China.

01:28France, on the other hand, has the opportunity to win its 17th gold medal

01:32and to finish in the top 5, a goal set and therefore fulfilled by President Emmanuel Macron.

01:38Cédric Ferreira, live from the Bercy Arena. Thank you Cédric.
