This two-point victory allows Pierrick Rézard’s men to remain in the Magnus League group. A four-team race to conquer the eighth place, synonymous with the playoffs, seems to be taking shape. Only three points separate the current eighth Nice, and Hormadi, eleventh. In between, Amiens and Chamonix play the spoilsport. The latter remain on five hits in a row. The objective is clear: to finish this calendar year well to be in the best position at the beginning of January.
Loose
In this last week of the year, the angloys still have two games to play. From this Tuesday evening in Seine-Maritime, against one of the favorites for the title, the Dragons of Rouen. Then in La Barre, in front of the red lantern, Briançon, Thursday evening (8.30pm). This Rouen team is very slow right now in their game, since the return of their goalkeeper Matija Pintaric to the cages, they seem to have a slight slowdown. But with the latest reinforcement to date, French international Valentin Claireaux, there’s no doubt Fabrice Lhenry’s men will be keen to exact revenge in front of their fans in style.
On 18 November at Île Lacroix, the Hormadis accomplished the feat (1-2). A first time since his ascent to the Basque club’s elite. Mathew Robson had been heroic in front of the nets, author of 39 saves. The Canadian goalkeeper will still have a lot to do this Tuesday evening against the army of Rouen and its spearheads of Quebec.
Polodian present
Absent from a concussion for almost three weeks, the Russian jewel Alexey Polodyan will return to the field on Rouen soil. He will be at the center of the first Angloy trio, with his friend Anton Vasilyev and the surprising Victor Ranger. In front of the Dragons, the Hormadi will show up almost in full to try and score points. Only Alexander Nikulin, still recovering, will miss the call.
