Heckled in the first half (Besançon was still leading 14-15 in the 29th minute), Pontault-Combault then took the lead (29-24) to pocket at home, this Sunday, May 2, a 17th success in 22 matches, and get a little closer to Saran : the leader of Proligue (18 wins and 1 draw) only has one victory ahead of Pontault-Combault, which he is preparing to face twice in the space of a week: the act I is planned Wednesday evening (at 7:30 p.m., behind closed doors, alas …) at the Jacques-Mazzuca hall, before the two protagonists meet in the Paris region on Tuesday, May 11.
A face to face decisive for the accession
This double confrontation is likely to be decisive in the attribution of the final first place, and therefore, of the entry ticket in Starligue, the elite of the French men’s hand.
Third tied, Nancy and Cherbourg (despite two more matches) indeed return one and two victories to the leading duo, while only four days remain to be played.
