France team – For the first time in its history in youth competitions, France dominates the United States (89-86), and qualifies for the final of the U19 World Cup.
They did it ! Zaccharie Perrin’s teammates brought down the United States (89-86) in the semi-finals of the U19 World Cup, which takes place in Hungary. France will face the winner of the match between Spain and Turkey in the final on Sunday. A deserved success since the players of Lamine Kebe led for 25 minutes, and they were skilful: 54% on shots, including 50% from 3-pointers.
They were able to hold their own in a stifling “money time”, and marked by a lot of clumsiness (16 stray balls for each team). Like the lost balls of Alexandre Bouzidi, who however caught up well in defense, or the missed shot under the circle of Zacharie Perrin in the last minute.
But on arrival, France won against the United States in the U19 World Cup
and it’s a first in youth competitions. On an individual level, we will remember the big performances of the executives with 18 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists from Perrin, 17 points from Melvin Ajinça and 13 points from Zaccharie Risacher. Alexandre Sarr did good late in the game with his intimidation and good hands in attack.
On the American side, Tobe Awaka is the most prominent with a double-double (14 points, 11 rebounds), while Mark Armstrong and Tre Johnson have 33 points between them.
