Thanks to its double success against Frontignan, HB Pontault-Combault will take part in the Proligue finals to be played this weekend in Dijon.
Having emerged victorious twice from their play-off against Frontignan (32-35; 34-39), HB Pontault-Combault reached the last four of the Proligue for the fourth time in their history. This weekend, the Seine-et-Marnais club will travel to Dijon to try to access the Liqui Moly Starligue. A city known to Pontellois since they had already tried their luck there last season, without success.
“Personally, I am relieved to achieve our goalsrelativized Guillaume Saurina, coach of HB Pontault-Combault, in The Republic of Seine-et-Marne. We are in continuity with last season. But we cannot be satisfied with that. Our collective has regained its bite and its game fundamentals to show that our place was in the Final Four after being roughed up at the start of the match. »
An obstacle to climb before dreaming of a final
The Proligue finals will not be a cakewalk for HB Pontault-Combault. Guillaume Saurina’s men face Saran this Saturday. If the coach of the Seine-et-Marne club is satisfied with the first obstacle overcome, the former handball player is aware that the hardest part awaits his team.
“It’s an already decisive meeting that awaits the group, because in the event of defeat, it’s over for us, warns the tactician of the club, always for The Republic of Seine-et-Marne. If we win, a final will loom against Tremblay or Dijon. Everything is allowed, even if Saran inflicted two big slaps on us in the league. » HB Pontault-Combault has its destiny in its hands this weekend. The Pontellois have not experienced Liqui Moly Starligue games since 2019 and a 14e place which will have cost them a relegation.
