Basketball Landes – Roche Vendée: 70-67 / Watch the match again

The Vendée came close to making a dent in the Landes. Quickly dominated by the locals, guided by former RVBC player, Luisa Geiselsöder (13 points, 13 rebounds), the Tigresses were put with their backs against the wall (62-41, 29') but were able to respond in style. In the space of a final quarter against a Basket Landes team in defeat in the face of the Yonnaise rebellion (6 to 23 in the 4th QT), Roche Vendée set the record straight in the wake of the Gaye duo – Gomis (17 points each) to attempt the hold-up. Fortunately for the Landes, the mastery of the last possession will secure a new success at home allowing the Espace Mitterrand to remain impregnable.

Charnay – Landerneau: 73-39 / Watch the match again

The Pinkies struck a big blow at home to master the Finistère team. Overtaken from the start (20-9, 10') by the performance of the CBBS and with a completely absent skill (26% shooting and 1/21 from three points), the Louves suffered a heavy setback at Prissé. The biggest gap achieved by Charnay of the season where the contribution of the trio Balogun – Akoa-Makani – Thomas (47 cumulative points) as well as that of Maëva Djaldi-Tabdi (10 points, 13 rebounds) and Paula Strautmane (2 points , 5 rebounds, 8 assists) will have been valuable.

Bourges – Angers: 71-69 / Watch the match again

The leader almost fell into the Angers trap at home. Setting the tone from the start of the match (15-24, 12'), Ameryst Alston (21 points) and her teammates face each other, straight in the eye with Bourges. A delicate situation from which the Berruyères will emerge, without however taking off (55-45, 30'), facing an Angevin team with the knife between their teeth. A constant pressure which will be confirmed when Aurélie Bonnan's protégés pick up the pace under the leadership of the trio Alston – Dursus – Tahane. Enough to reset the counters to zero 9 seconds from the end. Fortunately for Bourges, Kariata Diaby (18 points, 9 rebounds) will put on her superhero cape again to offer the advantage 2 seconds from the end of the match on a serve from Artemis Spanou. A fourth victory in a row for the leader to close 2024.

Lattes Montpellier – Villeneuve d'Ascq: 65-44 / Watch the match again

The Gazelles continue their momentum by validating a fifth consecutive victory against Villeneuve d'Ascq. Coming through completely in the first quarter (18-2, 10'), the Guerrières never got back on track in Lattes. On the BLMA side, Dulcy Fankam-Mendjiadeu (15 points, 13 rebounds) shone as usual, Jasmine Bailey had her best outing in the white and blue jersey (18 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists) and Garance Rabot demonstrated once again once his versatility (5 points, 12 rebounds, 5 assists, 20 rating).

Chartres – Tarbes : 79 -81 / Watch the match again

This duel kept us in suspense for 40 minutes. With endless changes of advantage, a gap which will never exceed the bar of seven points, the tension was more than present in the Coliseum for the official reunion in the championship between Elise Marié and Frida Eldebrink and their former club, Tarbes. Carried by the will-o'-the-wisp Marine Debaut (22 points), who will deliver her finest performance of her career in the elite, the Bluelights will not give up against a determined Tarbes group who could have been caught off guard. Leaving many cartridges in the money-time (2/6 on the free-throw line in the last three minutes), the TGB was able to count on Murjanatu Musa. Winning as a savior (21 points including 8 in 2'30'' at the end of the match) including the interception which sealed the fate of Chartres while the promoted team had one possession to force overtime or try to win, the Nigerian (29 rating) will release hers.
