Barely time to recover from this France – Turkey of anthology that the highlights came out of the oven. If you’re still here, then you watched the match without having any consequences. And honestly, given the face of the match, it was not a foregone conclusion. So if you want to test your heart rate, your resistance to stress or just watch this crazy match, this is where it happens.
The match started well for our sure tricolors, however, who directly erected the barbed wire in front of the Turkish attack while ensuring the other side of the floor. However, once their address is found, the Turks will come back with long shots, and it is this famous 3-point line that will play a very big role in this match. Whether it’s Furkan Korkmaz, Evan Fournier, Cedi Osman, Thomas Heurtel, Bugrahan Tuncer or even Timothé Luwawu-Cabarrot, many have scored important award-winning shots.
But as we said at the beginning, these are above all the high-class defensive actions that made the difference for the Blues. As evidenced by Rudy Gobert’s counter on Sehmus Hazer (in addition to his decisive tap dunk), TLC’s counter on Onuralp Bitim followed by Thomas Heurtel’s rescue to lead to Vincent Poirier’s dunk, alone in the opponent’s racket, or even the two interceptions of Terry Tarpey (including the one that folds the match for the French team). These few actions made the difference, even as Turkey were deprived of their playing master Shane Larkin. This final victory with a score of 87 to 86 gave us gray hair, but above all a good dose of love.
Yes, the Blues scared us a lot, but the Blues still got away with the Turkish obstacle in pain. This match will long remain one of the most thrilling in the history of the France team, and even the craziest of Vincent Collet’s career. With that, we’ll leave you, we’ll have a little Doliprane and a chamomile herbal tea.
