Never two without three, as the saying goes. Despite a superb performance from Raïssa Dapina, the Aiglonnes couldn’t make a difference at the end of the match.
“We are determined to finish on a high note before the break and the holidays, which will do us a lot of good. All week, we have been very intense in training. Chambray is a team that runs a lot. We have been warned,” confessed Margot Le Blévec to her club before starting the match. Fifth in the Butagaz Énergie standings, Chambray Touraine was undoubtedly not the easiest team to face to get back on track. And yet… The Niçoises, ninth on their side, held their own in a match that was as tight as it was thrilling. Neck and neck until the end of the game, OGC Nice faltered, lacking the resources to surpass the Conquerors in their favorable territory.
Raïssa Dapina was not enough
The Aiglonnes were close. Led by a great right winger (8 goals in total), Nice held steady, posting a score of 15 all in the first half. Similarly, the outcome of the match was far from decided before the end of regulation time, but it was Chambray who sounded the final bell to win 27-25. Regrets, sure, but a game that clearly promises good results after the break.
Before that, a meeting with Nîmes this Saturday evening in the Coupe de France (8 PM)!
