Courteix said. "Spain, Russia, England, Ireland we are one of the five favorites to qualify for Tokyo 2020. But what's exciting is that we must play with our head on every game it's a bit like walking on a wire."

But what is so challenging is that the two teams will definitely be eliminated from the Tokyo Games two teams of high quality. We are super motivated fully striving towards the goal and we will give everything to get there. To qualify for the Olympics in sevens today is a real performance qualifying would give a particular flavor to three years of intense work. "
