Exciting victory for IFK Kristianstad

USAM Nimes and IFK Kristianstad provided a great handball show with excitement until the last second. The Swedish team achieved the victory by the narrowest margin (24:25).


A great game by the goalkeeper Remi Desbonnet (17 saves) wasn’t enough to avoid the defeat for USAM Nimes. It’s also important to emphasize that a very inspired exhibition of Jurmala Aström (five goals in six shots) is largely at the origin of the second Kristianstad’s triumph in Group B.
