Of the six matches of the 21st day of the Magnus League on Sunday, two teams won away. Leaders, the Brûleurs de Loups de Grenoble triumphed 6-3 (1-0, 1-1, 4-2) against the Boxers de Bordeaux in front of 3,500 spectators. After being tied up to 3-3 (51’16”), the Grenoblois (whose first two goals were scored by Guillaume Leclerc) scored three goals, the last in the empty cage.
As for the Pioneers of Chamonix, they won in overtime against the Jokers of Cergy Pontoise 4-3 (1-1, 2-1, 0-1, 1-0) in front of 2874 spectators. The golden goal was scored by Jakub Izacky (assist from Clément Masson and Jesper Akerman). Much to the regret of the Jokers, who equalized at 59’34” by Kalle Myllymaa. But they saw Danick Bouchard score his 256th goal and become the top scorer in the League created in 2004! He dethroned Julien Desrosiers, 255. The Pioneers also stood out on the statistical side with two assists from captain Clément Masson, who became the third player to reach 500 points in the regular season. He is the first Frenchman by birth and the first since Marc-André Thinel, seven years ago.
In the other four matches, the home team therefore won. In their lair on Lacroix Island, the Rouen Dragons beat the Marseille Spartans 2-1 (1-0, 1-0, 0-1) in front of 3,029 spectators. The Phocaeans, who had come back to within a goal (46’21”) thanks to Elias Ruusu, brought out their goalkeeper Stefan Steen 29” from the end, but in vain.
Angers outclasses Amiens
At the IceParc, the Dukes of Angers consolidated their second place by outclassing the Gothics of Amiens 5-0 (3-0, 2-0, 0-0) in front of 3,586 spectators. The goals were all scored by a different player: Robin Gaborit, Philippe Halley, Marius Serer, Lucien Onno and Mathew Wilkins. In Jean-Bouin, the Nice Eagles beat the Gap Raptors 3-2 (1-0, 2-0, 0-2) in front of 890 spectators. After being down 0-3, the Raptors scored twice in the final third (Lucas Colombin 48’38”, Jan Dalecky 59’49”).
Finally, the Red Devils of Briançon beat Anglet Hormadi 4-3 (0-1, 4-1, 0-1) in front of 1,214 spectators. At 58’53” by Fabien Kazarine, the visitors came back to within a goal, but suffered a 2′ penalty less than a minute later and were unable to equalise.
