It was with great seriousness that the Le Mans team began the meeting. The ball circulated wonderfully and Guillaume Lemarié's men literally asphyxiated the Vendéens (15-27, 10'). The second quarter was the same, the captains Niktash, Leloup and Foucault did the job. The Jaltais were well ahead at the break (31-56, 20').
“We had a big air gap”
“During the first period, the guys were present on both sides of the pitch with great concentration. The game was very fluid thanks to good ball circulation. This first half was very successful,” analyzed the Manceau coach. But as happens from time to time, the Le Mans team suffered the lightning of the locals from the start of the 3e quarter and only scored four small points in ten minutes. Chambretaud came back to 12 points behind the Sarthois (48-60, 30'). “We had a big gap due to their aggressive defense. We had lost our fluidity and our address. » In an overheated room, Leloup and his partners still found the necessary resources to seal an eighth success this season. La Jalt and Challans, victorious against Orléans, still share the lead in the championship. “The guys were serious, they played a very big match. We only got 60 points, it’s a great performance,” recounted Guillaume Lemarié.
