I must be in the minority as I'm cheering for France tonight.
While New Zealand is a good team and playing at home, France isn't exactly a schlep team and have a very similar record in this tournament historically.
Plus, New Zealand has breezed through this tournament where France has had to get dirty and actually play a full game in order to win. They have a trainer whose been fired effective the end of the tournament after a previous loss in the round robin and since then have pretty much fought to get every win they have.
