France U18 handball team finishes 7th at European Championship

The France U18 men's national handball team concluded their European Championship campaign in 7th place. Following a quarter-final elimination against Spain, the team participated in placement matches.

In a key performance against Serbia, France secured a 27-22 victory. After a tied first half of 11-11, the French team improved their defensive structure and benefited from strong goalkeeping to pull ahead in the second half. Notable contributors included Célio Bertina in goal, Garcia, and Jacques-Belint Siwe.

In their final placement match against Iceland, France faced a highly competitive side. Despite strong offensive performances from Isaac Saillard, who earned MVP honors with seven goals, and Jacques-Belint Siwe, France struggled with late-game management. The match ended in a narrow 33-30 defeat for the French side, resulting in their 7th-place finish.
