France U18 Dominates Germany, Reaches Euro Semifinals
The French U18 basketball team has advanced to the final four of the Euro U18 championship. Despite persistent challenges with long-range shooting, managing only 6 successful shots out of 25, the French squad triumphed over Germany with a final score of 76-61 in their quarter-final match on Friday. This victory propels them into the semi-final stage of the competition.
Once again, Hugo Yimga-Moukouri, a player from Nanterre, delivered a stellar performance, emerging as the top scorer for the French team with an impressive 25 points. His contribution was crucial, especially considering a somewhat unconvincing start to the game, with France trailing 12-16 at the end of the first quarter. However, Γlise Prodhomme's players responded strongly in the second quarter, outscoring their opponents 25-10. They maintained control throughout the second half, effectively fending off Germany's attempts to close the score gap.
On Saturday, the French team is set to face Italy, the host nation of the tournament, in their quest for a place in the final.
