Handball – National 1: Wrong note Gonfreville against Nantes – Paris Normandy

The taste of this last game was special for Mathieu Kreiss, the last rampart Gonfrevillais, which in 40 years drew bow. By moving in the relegation Nantais, Normans hoped to clinch a ninth successful and approach so the ten coveted this season. After a round of observation rather to the advantage of the formation of ubiquitous Kreiss (2-5, 6th), confirmed by the third embodiment of David Jordan (6-9, 15th), young shoots of Greg Cojean eventually recover nose to the window under the leadership of a Roman Lagarde and its high-powered arms and Saidi also to his advantage. Revenues in the game after 21 (10-11) despite Jordan recovering steadily pot is Bourget Jans which offered the first equal to the Loire in the 23rd (12-12). Perhaps hampered by the strict decision Mallet, players Cherif Hamani accused the blow, lost balls and thus offered the boulevards mopeds Nantaises far from being out of fuel (14-12, 25th). Jordan stopped the bleeding before Magoure equalized (15-15, 28th). The Nantais determined to leave the Nationale 1 on a positive note ended up twice before returning to the locker room (17-15, 30th).

Last match disappointing
for Kreiss

The return of these confirmed an upturn Nantes (18-15) to which Dalmont, Jordan and Cabron put a halt (21-21, 37th). Five minutes later and six zeros (27-21, 42), Gonfreville had taken a serious blow to morale. Jordan had missed his first penalty, symptomatic of open doubt Normans and a Salmon at its level while Saidi, Tuzonala and Vergely, rampaging scorers, indulged themselves to their heart’s content (30-25, 50th). The damage was done. Gonfreville not return. Mathieu Kreiss thus ends his career with a heavy defeat. ‘ The score speaks for itself. We did not defend as needed. We were on AC and we did not put the ingredients it takes to win ! Nantes is a young team, they have pep, envy and tonight it could not happen in these conditions. ‘ His coach, Chérif Hamani was mainly disappointed for him. ‘ We could offer something to Mathieu for his last game. We knew they were going to give their all. From our side we did not show a beautiful face and we took the lesson with little 18 year olds. The maintenance is acquired, it is essential. ‘
