Hopefully we'll play a great game today, with the Vroman we know. Today I think Fadi will be the most defended (France knows Fadi very well and saw what he did yesterday) which should let Matt more comfortable than yesterday. We should commit the fewest TO's possible (yesterday it was perfect with only 10!!!) and score more FT's if possible, while keeping rebounding very well.

France will defend like hell to try to keep us under 70pts (that's their strategy, because they can't score more...and that's what they did against Spain). If they succeed, they will win. If not, we will.

I voted for Lebanon, hope we'll win by 5 72-67!

Go Lebanon!!!

France looks like a determined team right now, though I would call their win "lucky" as bad breaks came in the end for Spain add to that the technical foul committed in the last few minutes.

It's 50-50 on this one, but I'll root for Lebanon.


P.S. I dunno if it is just me, but France looks like a Qatar team ... it just so happen some of their players came from past or current French colonies....

Yes but at least many of their players were born in France, all lived there and they all speak French, unlike the Qatari team.

I voted for Lebanon although France has the upper hand.

Technically , they r ahead of us in term of physical plays , but i believe we r a better shooting team.

I believe in my boys , Go Lebanon!

Today's game will be much tougher than yesterday but I still hope we can win this game. We have to be 100% prepared and hopefully all will be fine.

Yalla Lebnen Yallaaaaaaaa!!!

[Goxest]

Not confident about this game, we r too inconstant and Lebanon made me a good impression yesterday. This game will be a close one. Hope we'll do it however !

[gazara]

Let's hope to see the best game from both teams, and may the better win.
i find the poll results rational and objective, it's good

[wardjdim]

One of the top matches of the day

Since I brought good luck to Lebanon vs. Canada by simply voting for them and not commenting, let's see if I can now affect the result

I personally think, they are winning it, since most of their top players anyway underperformed yesterday and yet they sealed the win at the end.. And in some fashion. Plus, France will be much tired.. I give Lebanon the advantage by a 5+ margin
