Incredible, but true. After 23 rounds of the championship, and with only 3 matches left to play, the top five teams have exactly the same number of points. This proves that the 2011-2012 season is of an unprecedented level and density.
Following their victory over Saint-Nazaire, Avignon reclaims the top spot in Ligue BM but, exceptionally, with the same number of points as its four chasers.
The team from Vaucluse has the psychological advantage of now wearing the number 1 jersey.
A jersey the Nice team didn’t hold for long. The leaders indeed fell on Friday 3/2 (15-13 in the tie-break) against an Asnières team that has nothing left to play for. It was a missed opportunity for Malden Kasic’s players.
There are still three rounds left for the final sprint for direct promotion to LNA (the teams ranked 2nd to 5th will compete in the playoffs to determine the second team to be promoted).
