The U19 European Championship started last weekend and we already have teams qualified for the semifinals.
Three teams withdrew from the competition due to the coronavirus situation that prevented the teams from traveling. Germany, Italy and Russia announced a few days before the competition that they would not go to Croatia and Bosnia Herzegovina (tournament venues).
Thus, group I (host in Bosnia) was left with 5 teams (Italy out) and group II (host in Croatia) only with 4 teams (Germany and Russia out).

Great performance from France so far, we always had difficulties with our women teams. It's very good to see the girls at least in semi-finals.
@Sherlock .Yes, it is a very warrior team. Diouf is incredible. The team is doing very well, it will be a good game tomorrow.
@Fernandoo I just hope they don't play against Serbia in semi-finals...
@Sherlock Well, it will happen
