After a short round of observation (0-1, 5′), the Chartraines would take the lead thanks to an iron defense, which broke up the opponent’s ball circulation. Despite the good activity of the Granvillaise Deletre, the visitors were unable to destabilize the Chartres block well in place. The local offensive combinations worked, Keriquel and Le Gallet-Pottier found the net (10-5, 20′). For Granville, danger came from everywhere and the score continued to climb in favor of the locals at the break (16-9).

Returning from the locker room, Chartres still played a tone above its opponent in terms of commitment and defensive intensity. Tison made some good defensive interceptions and distinguished himself in attack by scoring six goals. Granville did not give up like Clément, but Chartres kept control in this second act (20-12, 40′). Raynal and Jousseaume found easy situations to keep Granville at bay. Chartres never doubted in this game and achieved a big victory.
Granville coach, Clément Lemardele, looked back on the particular context of the moment for his team: “We are coming out of crisis management where our head coach decided to stop. At short notice, I will act as interim at least for the next three matches. This group has shortcomings but it also has the potential to seek victories along the way with the work. In particular, it is necessary to avoid moments of absence in defense. »
Clara Trellu, the Esperance coach, appreciated the performance of her group: “It was a return match after a two-week break. We rolled out and we were able to get everyone playing. All the players returned with the same state of mind. In recent matches, we have gained momentum in collective play. Defense is our strong point and we continue to work on it. After a truce, it was a trap match. We got through it, that’s good. »
