After last week’s victory in João Rocha Pavilion, USAM Nimes collected another win against Sporting CP (27:24) and gives wings to the European dream.

With a great defensive and offensive attitude, the French team were always in front on the scoreboard throughout the game, confirming their third win in Group B.

• USAM Nimes took an important step towards qualifying
• Teodor Paul made 14 saves during the game, as did Matevz Skok
• Michael Guigou scored five for USAM Nimes; Frankis Carol netting six for Sporting
• This is the third win for USAM Nimes and the second defeat for Sporting CP in Group B

Despite six goals from Frankis Carol, it was goalkeeper Teodor who stood out as the Cuban player didn’t score with his other eight shots. It was left to the skills of Michael Guigou - with five goals - and the goalkeeper Teodor Paul (14 saves) to lay the foundation for Nimes's third triumph in Group B.
