The Blues. who had not beat Spain since 2014, put an end to a series of five consecutive setbacks against the reigning European champions, which they had left three years ago by a cruel defeat in the Euro final.

After two unfinished victories against lower teams (81-75 against Montenegro. 74-67 against Great Britain), the Blues did not reduce in front of their historic rival, despite a clumsiness in shooting (21/37 at two french male basketball team beats points and especially 5/29 with three points), compensated by a defensive discipline (26 rebounds).

After the return match in Bercy. the Olympic vice-champions will face Greece in Athens on August 24 before starting the Euro preliminary round in Katowice (Poland) against Belgium four days later.
