The beautiful machinery broke down somewhere, and the Aiglonnes are in trouble.
Facing the team from Chambry, the players from Nice managed the first half well (ending 15-11), only to be caught up in the first part of the second half and overtaken in the last 10 minutes (23-25).
It is worth noting that only 9 players made the trip, with many key players absent.
The defeat is recoverable, but will the Azuriennes have the physical strength and the mental resilience to succeed?
We’ll find out on Friday the 9th at Charles Erhmann.
In goal, Sako made 6 saves out of 23 shots, Colic 1/9.
