so how many W's FrAnce needs to make it to the eurocup?

It is complicated, i will try to make it easy.
4 group : A, B, C & D.
The 4 first are qualified + 3 best second.
One "second team" of the group C & D will be qualified. (Because group A & B have better "second teams")

Group C
1. Turkey 4/0
2. France 2/2
3. Belgium 1/3
4. Ukraine 1/3

Group D :
1. Great Britain 3/1
2. Bosnia and Herzegovina 2/2
3. Czech Republic 2/2
4. Israel 1/3

So it is between France, Bosnia and Herzegovina & Czech Republic.
The 3 teams are 2w 2l.
So France needs to win the last 2 games at home against Ukraine & Turkey...
And meanwhile, Bosnia and Herzegovina & Czech Republic need to lose 1 game of the last 2.
Oh... and Great Britain could be eliminated it they lose their 2 last games (played away).

It is very complicated. :p:

Sept 17 France vs Ukraine
Sept 20 France vs Turkey

Sept 17 Czech Republic vs Great Britain
Sept 17 Israel vs Bosnia and Herzegovina

Sept 20 Bosnia and Herzegovina vs Great Britain
Sept 20 Israel vs Czech Republic

A tenth of a second after the final whistle, hundreds of kids ran like crazy to the french bench. TP was surrounded by people touching him and a security guy had to take him to the stands so he could get into the locker room. :lol

Eva was there too.

On the game :
One interesting thing is that at the end of the game, the ball often was in De Colo's hands even before TP was fouled out. And Nando did the job, provoking fouls and MAKING his FTs.

Like in the first game, Belgium's PG got into TP's head by sticking to him and never letting him space. TP was pissed and trash talked to him several times :lol

I have respect for Tony and his dedication to french NT but I don't always like his attitude in those international games. He's a bit acting like a diva at times.

Did he use the "I got 3 rings bitch" line? It's pretty popular around here! :lol
