Playing against the reigning champion is not the easiest way to start the championship. This was the case for the handball players of OGC Nice against Metz.
The Aiglonnes did not pull off a surprise and began the season with a defeat: 25-19 (12-8).
In attack, Carmen Martin scored 7 goals. In the goal, Sako and Colic alternated: 4/16 saves for the former, 5/18 for her teammate.
