Too far in the standings to play for European places but largely maintained, Cesson-Rennes Handball can attack this end of the season rather quietly.
The end of the season promises to be very quiet on the Cesson-Rennes side. Largely maintained in Liqui Moly Starligue, the Indomitables are in 9th place in the championship, with 23 units. Well above the first relegation, Istres, and its 11 points. But also too unhooked from Toulouse and its 7th place with 30 points to be able to hope for a fight for European places.

From now on, the club can concentrate on several other objectives for this end of the season. Indeed, the Indomitables have a sad record on the outside.

A turnover that the coach has already been able to put in place, giving more playing time to the young Louis Despréaux, who offered 7 goals against HB Nantes during the last meeting of Rennais. However, despite this turnover, the coach wants to do the job until the end of the season to guarantee this 9th place. “We won’t have to let our end of the season go. It would be a shame in view of the correct or even good season that we are having. » The stage is set for the reception in Aix-en-Provence this Friday…
