This Friday, November 15, the Brûleurs de Loups entered the competition in the Conti Cup. The Grenoblois lost their first match against Aalborg (5-3). From the first minute Christophe Boivin opened the scoring and put the French team in the lead. Just before the end of the first third, Alexandre Mallet will make the break and will allow Grenoble to be in the best conditions to continue the match. But in the second half it was quite the opposite, the Danish team managed to score three goals to lead the way in the match. Unfortunately in the final third, Grenoble will score a goal but Aalborg will score two more. The French team will face Katowice this Saturday at 2:00 p.m.
