Certainly, the teams of  France ladies and gentlemen  were eliminated in the quarter-finals, but the World Championships Padel 2024 is not over yet though.

The secondary table, which will determine the places of  5rd to 8th , promises to be much more interesting to follow than the rest of the journey of the  Argentines  and  Spanish , comfortably qualified for the semi-finals, as if they were extending their vacation in Qatar.

Ladies: France vs Sweden

At the  Women , we will first have to digest the great disappointment of the defeat against  Portugal . While they were hoping to fight for 3rd place, the French women must now pull themselves together to aim for a good final score and win the  5th place . Sure, the spell is broken, and the hardest task will probably be to find the will to fight in this tournament again. However, there is no time to procrastinate: the competition resumes tomorrow morning at  9h  (7am French time) opposite the  Sweden .

Sweden, although not having any top-ranked players on paper – with the exception of  Carolina Navarro  (55e) and  amanda girdo  (113th) – finished in 5th place in the  European Championships  last July. French women must therefore show resilience and remobilize without delay to avoid being taken by surprise.  Team France has no choice: it will have to roll up its sleeves quickly  !

Gentlemen: France vs Brazil

After their elimination in the quarter-finals, the French men's team must quickly pull themselves together to face a tough opponent: the  Brazil The latter was narrowly beaten by Portugal in the group stage and represents a serious challenge for the French.

Brazil, the 5th nation in the world (weight by nation), fields world-class players such as  Lucas Bergamini  (20ᵉ) and  Lucas Campagnolo  (26th) and we should not underestimate the presence of players playing on the circuit  A1Padel , bringing valuable experience.

For the Blues, vigilance is required. After facing Italy, the world's 3rd nation in terms of team weight, they must now measure up to a determined Brazilian team. Concentration and seriousness will be essential to hope for a victory and end the tournament on a positive note.
