French throw Scots a lifeline

Vive la France! France beat Switzerland in this morning's Group A match at the European Mixed Curling Championship in Kitzbuehel.

Swiss skip Christian Moser could not buy himself a draw in the latter half of the game against Lionel Roux's side.

So, where does that leave us. Scotland must now beat Latvia in their last round robin game. If they were to do so, that would set up a tiebreaker against the Swiss, to get into the playoff games for the fourth semifinal slot. There's a long way to go, but Scotland is not out of this yet.

This was a double takeout in the last end of the Fra-Swi game as the French recorded their second win of their six matches. Pics by Bob.
