If Metz Handball, which remained on a draw and a defeat, and Folschviller, winner of Sélestat eight days earlier, were on two opposite slopes before this 22e day, the two teams are still there after this one but they have each changed lanes. The Messins returned to success by dominating almost the entire match at Vesoul (0-3, 5e ; 11-14, 30e ; 20-19, 43e ; 23-26, 54e ) even if it took a final goal from Blond on the buzzer to achieve this (28-29). Despite a good start, (6-7, 15e ; 11-1, 27e ), Folsch’ gradually sank in Créteil (24-16) and sees the 10e place move away to four lengths.

In Thionville, the party was at the rendezvous. Philippe Ouchène’s men won 36-32 after an explosive encounter against Marckolsheim. Everything could have been so simple for the Thionvillois on Saturday. But the players of Philippe Ouchène and Xavier Mazagran had to make the task much more complicated. “We have trouble managing this kind of period”, regrets the Moselle technician. “The fatigue and the side, it’s good we won so we relax. “The essential is assured for the TMHB which wins 36-32 and continues its route towards the rise in N1. “There are 4 games left, we have to win 3. We have 4 former players who will stop. They will have to be replaced and it will not be easy. They are big characters, big warriors. “Lilian Gay, rookie of the off-season returned to Cernay, disappointed with his playing time.

By going to win at Thelle (25-29) after a masterfully led second period, the reserve of Sarrebourg, which remained on three losses in five matches, took over the head of the pool from its host. On the other hand, at the bottom of the ranking, Amnéville completely lost control at the end of the match after having led by ten units (20-10, 37e ; 22-12, 40e ) to lose (23-24) having conceded the last four goals (23-20, 56e ). In Pool 6, pending the decisions of the Disciplinary Committee after the Soultz incidents, the positions remain fixed after the victories of the leader Mamirolle and his second, the P2H, who quite easily led his boat to Chalon (15- 20, 30e ; 24-24, 48e ; 27-30, 60e ).
