No pressure and no thoughts of revenge for France going into women’s FIBA World Cup final
After their Olympic basketball final heartbreak, Gabby Williams, a star for France's women's team, appears to be determined for their upcoming FIBA World Cup final. In a 86-64 victory over host Germany, Williams contributed 22 points, five rebounds, four assists, and five steals, potentially setting up a showdown with the United States the following day.
The U.S. won the gold in Paris by a point, with Williams shooting just inside the 3-point line. Williams stated she had "no preference" about whom France faces on Sunday. Williams' teammate, Dominique Malonga, praised her consistency and hard work throughout the tournament, while Marine Johannès revealed they had "nothing to lose" and would play hard in the final.
France's coach, Jean-Aimé Toupane, expressed pride in his team's performance as they take on a challenging opponent for the first time in a World Cup semifinal.
