It would take a small miracle, or at least one hell of a performance, to win at the H Arena, the current undefeated leader of the Starligue. Nantes, very impressive since the start of the season, logically took control of Chartres this Saturday evening, in all respects and in a magnificent atmosphere (5,900 spectators). But the Euréliens, despite the defeat of six goals (34-28), do not deserve it and offer resistance, especially in the second half.
Long in ambush
To say that the H doubted would probably be a bit strong, because he led the whole game and had already widened a nice gap at the end of the first period (15-9). But she didn’t go around whistling. Because the Chartrains played their game and did not let themselves go, like Vadim Gayduchenko (6/7) and Aleksa Kolakovic (4/5) who put in the second half the offensive impact that they sometimes missed in the first part of the game , against a defense of Nantes, it is true, robust and very high.
Does C’Chartres MHB have a chance to derail the great car of Nantes?
The CCMHB thus clung to the queues of HBC Nantes for a long time, still only two lengths at 48 ‘, following a missile launched in the Gayduchenko skylight (24-22). Moment chosen by Grégory Cojean, the new coach of H, to fix a time-out, following which the Chartrains have been permanently blocked.
Chambery on 22 October
To look Nantes in the eye to the end, it would have been necessary to lose just under the fifteen lost balloons. Ammunition that the league leaders sent fast, even if they couldn’t, three days after their demonstration in Celje, in the Champions League (24-35), where they had undoubtedly burned some energy, and lost in the trial their middle titular half, Aymeric Minne.

The Chartrains, still deprived of Sergey Kudinov from their side, ended up dropping the ballast in the final minutes, and ultimately lost 34-28 in the Nantes cauldron, despite Adrian Figueras’ nice new copy (7/8) and that of Julien Meyer 12 fashion shows. A new defeat, the fourth in a row, in which there will certainly be interesting things to draw from to start a comeback, in two weeks, the day after the national break. It will be in Jean-Cochet, opposite Chambéry.
