In a late match, Paris quietly won at Saran last night (34:27).
Three days after taking the points on the Istres side, were the Paris Saint-Germain players going to do the same on the Orleans side? The suspense will have lasted about fifteen minutes, the time that Paris accelerates and deposits its opponent on the spot. A few saves from Yann Genty, a few well-considered counter-attacks and, at the break, with a six-goal lead, the matter was already over.
As he has recently become accustomed to, Raul Gonzalez took advantage of it in the second half, giving youngsters Baptiste Clay and Wallem Peleka some playing time (1 goal each) while Mikkel Hansen returned to the French courts for the first times since the European Championship. Only Henrik Toft Hansen and Adama Keita failed to find the net for Paris, with Kamil Syprzak finishing top scorer with six goals.
On the Saranese side, we will remember the nine saves of Nicolas Gauthier, very good in the first period, and the five goals of Hadrien Ramond, top scorer of his team.
With a seven-point lead after sixteen days, Paris has already killed all suspense as to the identity of the future champion of France. PSG could still take off a little more this weekend, thanks to the reception of Limoges, while their pursuers Nantes and Aix will play respectively in Chambéry and Nîmes. Saran, for his part, will try to end a series of six consecutive defeats on the side of Chartres, Friday evening.
