We meet once again. As at the 2021 and 2023 World Cups, and as at Euro 2022, the France team plays its place in the final of Euro 2024 against Sweden, Friday January 26, from 5:45 p.m. in Cologne. Undefeated since the start of this Euro, the Blues face their best enemies again, a year after their victorious semi-final at the World Cup, in Sweden.

That day, however, the Swedes were deprived of their star Jim Gottfridsson, who will be there this time. Just like Andreas Palicka, the Swedish (and PSG) bulwark, whose simple name brings back painful memories. To avoid another defeat against the Blagultafter those of 2021 and 2022, the Tricolores will be able to count on their current confidence, while Sweden has just lost to Norway in the last match of the main round.
