The Parisian handball players were dominated this Thursday at home by the Berlin “Foxes” (34-37).
The Parisian handball players suffered a second consecutive defeat in the Champions League against Berlin (34-37) on Thursday, a week after the debacle in Lisbon against Sporting, and are complicating their task of directly qualifying for the quarter-finals.
After nine days, Paris SG has 12 points and cedes 2nd place in its group to Sporting, easy winner of Dinamo Bucharest (34-25) who takes a one point lead (13 against 12). In this group, the Hungarian club Veszprem leads with 16 points. PSG sees Berlin move closer to two points (10), just like Bucharest, five days from the end of the group phase.
The top two in each group qualify directly for the quarter-finals with the advantage of playing the second leg at home, while the teams between third and sixth place will play a play-off.
With this setback of three goals, the Parisians especially lost the particular advantage over the Berlin “Foxes”, while Raul Gonzalez’s players had won in the German capital by two goals (40-38). The Parisians will travel to Bucharest next week, with the obligation to win so as not to let Sporting escape and eliminate the Romanians from the race for one of the first two places.
