GB set up crucial France showdown
The Great Britain women's wheelchair basketball team face a vital clash against France on Sunday for third place at the European Championships.

Garry Peel's side set up the encounter after a tremendous 49-43 victory over the Netherlands on Saturday.

Veteran Anne Wild hit 17 points while Sarah Burrett added 15 for GB who were 27-14 up at half-time.

Victory over the French would also give GB a place in next year's World Championships in the Netherlands.

Great Britain lost 48-26 to France in a disappointing display in their opening game of the tournament and will be gunning for revenge.
