Back to the wall, the French finally beat the Brazilians 2/1 and they can still believe in first place in this group D.

After Collombon/Soubrie victory and defeat of Godallier/Pothier, it was the turn of Fiona Ligi and Mélissa Martin to enter the arena against Barreto/Oliveira. With a very big stake: in the event of defeat, the dreams of the quarter-finals flew away for the selection of Robin Haziza.

In a very tense match, Fiona and Mélissa knew how to be stronger than their opponents in key moments to come away with the victory. After seeing Barreto and Oliveira save four match points in the tiebreak, those who lost in three sets yesterday were able to finish the job.

A success that should do the group a lot of good and allow them to approach the rest of the adventure more serenely.

Final score 7/5 7/6 (9) for Ligi and Martin who offer France their first victory in this World Cup. And what a victory!

Fiona Ligi and Mélissa Martin happy to have won the decisive point

Tomorrow, the French will have two easier confrontations against Paraguay then the United Arab Emirates. Then everything will depend on the match between Sweden and Brazil. If the Swedes win, the French will finish in second place in the group. If it is the Brazilians who win on the other hand, it will be necessary to take out the calculator to decide between these three nations which will find themselves tied.
