Metz Handball goes to the top. The first, in the Champions League on Saturday, ended in failure against the formidable Hungarian Györ (33-29). The Dragonnes barely have time to digest this first defeat of the season, in all competitions, thatanother challenge presents itself at the Arènes tonight (8:30 p.m.): Paris 92. A team which, like that of Manu Mayonnade, performed flawlessly with 5 victories in 5 matches in the Butagaz Energie League.
“It is a team which plays a quality handball, very aggressive, and which will want to take advantage of our defeat to push us a little more and which will want to assert itself on the national level” warns the Metz coach who is counting on the rebound capacity of his players to resume their forward march. Especially since the Ile-de-France, where many old Straps (Laura Flippes, Marie-Hélène Sajka, Gnonsiane Niombla, Lara González Ortega …) They also remain in disillusionment after their elimination last weekend in the second round of the European League against Bera Bera (ESP).
