The poster to follow: Metropolitans against Pau-Lacq-Orthez
BASKETBALL.
After their heavy defeat (77-94) in the first match of the quarter-finals against Pau, the Metropolitans will have to bounce back, this Saturday evening in Béarnaise land if they want to have the opportunity to play a good next Monday and thus continue the adventure.
The players of the Boulogne-Levallois Mets will have to show a completely different face than that observed in game 1 and in particular Will Cummings who had not offered a performance worthy of his status as MVP of the season.
Paris, May 25.
The Metropolitans suffered a heavy defeat against Pau at the start of the quarter-finals of the French championship.

The current series: the invincibles of the PSG Hand
HANDBALL.
The Red and Blue of PSG Hand will face the team of Saran (45) for this 27th day of Liqui Moly Starligue.
The match will be held this Friday, May 27 at the Pierre-de-Coubertin stadium at 8 p.m.
Far at the top of the standings with 52 points, PSG are simply undefeated so far this season with 26 wins.
As in the first leg, it is unlikely that the Center-Val-de-Loire club will escape the crushing monopoly of PSG this season.
With 40 points difference in the classification compared to the Parisian club, little suspense, therefore for the outcome of this match, except improbable reversal of situation.
Anyway, this is the penultimate opportunity to support the Rouge et Bleu at home for the Parisians.
And to see this incredible team in action before it loses some of its best elements next season such as Mikkel Hansen (Aalborg), Nedim Remili, Benoît Kounkoud (Kielce), Vincent Gérard (Saint-Raphaël) and Yann Genty (Limoges) will leave the club.
Question of the week: Can Massy turn things around?
RUGBY.
Beaten 21-9 in Albi during the National semi-final first leg despite their status as favorites, the Massicois will have to go up twelve points in the return match this Sunday to reach the last step leading to the gates of ProD2.
The case is therefore badly started for Massy who was nevertheless the undisputed leader of the regular phase of National.
