Handball: the boss is PSG

The forced cut will not have changed anything.

After ten days without competition and two matches postponed because of the Covid-19, PSG came back valiant and conqueror.

Victorious without forcing (42-20) from Limoges, 2 nd in the standings, in the only meeting maintained on the 7th day, Raul Gonzalez's players have a sixth success in as many matches.

Opposite, the surprise dolphin was unceremoniously crunched by hungry Parisians, who now have three points ahead in the standings.

It's over in Coubertin on this river score!

What you must remember

With his excellent start to the competition (4V, 1N, 1D), the promoted did not even have time to take hope.

In a Coubertin deprived of spectators, Limoges tied the game for four minutes (1-1) before suffering the fury of the Parisian attackers (6-2, 11th, then 11-4, 20th).

Deprived of course of Nikola Karabatic, the PSG relies on Elohim Prandi, its recruit from Nîmes (6 goals in the 1st period, 13 in total).

At the break, the case is heard (20-8).

The second period continues at the same pace.

Without forcing, the Parisians even go so far as to count twenty goals in advance (34-14, 48th).

Andry Goujon-Bellevue (21), from the training center, even took the opportunity to register his penalty.

In Limoges, only Dragan Gajic survives (11 goals).

The player: Luka Karabatic

This meeting marked the return of Luka Karabatic on the field.

Victim of a stretch at the very beginning of the season, the Parisian captain had not played since the first day against Aix.

Also called up in the France group for the Euro 2022 qualifiers which were to start Thursday against Belgium (postponed match, like the one against Greece, Sunday), Luka Karabatic played from the start and scored 4 goals.

The number: 39

Or the number of consecutive home wins for PSG in the league.

The last defeat to Coubertin of the club of the capital dates back to June 8, 2017. That day, Nantes came to win with a small goal (38-37) during the 26th and last day.

And did not prevent the Parisians from lifting the trophy of Champion of France, the 3rd in a series of six.
