Objective achieved for the French team of padel-armchair: after their logical defeat against the spanish ogre, the Blues dominated Costa Rica and will play for third place in the Madrid World Cup tomorrow.

Last match against Argentina

The team led by Dorian Navarro and Sébastien Husser fulfilled their contract by finishing 2nd in pool A. Unfortunately, the format of the competition does not provide for a semi-final: Spain, 1st in pool A, will meet tomorrow in the final Chile, who came 1st in pool B. As for France, they will compete for 3rd place against Argentina. The latter was surprised in the pool by the Chilean selection, half of which are made up of Spanish players – which allows the still flexible regulations of these first World Cups. padel-armchair !

Bronze is therefore in sight for the tricolors, who played strategy this Saturday to dominate Costa Rica: the Blues placed their weakest pair on paper against the best Central American team.

A revenge of the last World Cup

Bet more than successful, since the Navarro / Vanlerberghe then Boval / Husser pairs scored the required 2 points without leaving the slightest game to the Costa Rican pairs 2 and 3.
