A new sports weekend, excluding football. Le Parisien invites you to analyze and decipher the results of the main clubs in Île-de-France.
The climb: Massy finds the Pro D 2
RUGBY. It was the question of the weekend. Beaten (21-9) in Albi during the semi-final first leg of the National, would the players of Massy be able to catch up to access the Pro D 2. The answer is yes! At the break, the Essonniens had caught up much of their delay (14-3). They only needed one point to take the lead. It’s done as soon as the recovery with the 3rd of the 6 tries registered.
With a victory in the form of a triumph (40-10), the Ile-de-France residents find the Pro D 2 which they had left in 2019, this time with the idea of staying there. The season is not over with a final against Soyaux Angoulême which will take place next Saturday in Blagnac.
The card: PSG Judo achieves the double
JUDO. PSG left only the crumbs for their rivals. Whether for boys or girls, PSG won the two titles during the French Division 1 Championship which was held this Saturday in Villebon-sur-Yvette in Essonne.
The harvest began with the girls who, thanks to Marie-Ève Gahié, won the final against the defending champions, Le Blanc-Mesnil. On the third step, Sainte-Geneviève and Maisons-Alfort for a 100% Ile-de-France podium. Chelles (5th) and the two 7th, FLAM 91 and Champigny-sur-Marne complete the Ile-de-France raid.
Same observation for the boys, PSG with Teddy Riner did not miss the title against FLAM 91 in the final. There, too, Ile-de-France supremacy was not denied with third places in Sainte-Geneviève and AJA Paris XX, 5th place in Montreuil and 7th place in Chilly-Mazarin.
The flop: The Metropolitans are hot in the quarterfinals
BASKET. Yet favorites in their quarter-final against Elan Béarnais Pau-Lacq-Orthez, the Metropolitans of Boulogne-Levallois see their dream of the title of champion of France fly away. Despite their third place during the regular season, which allowed them to face the sixth (Elan Béarnais) and therefore have the advantage of playing at home a possible beautiful, Vincent Collet’s players stalled.
Already beaten on Wednesday in match 1 at home (77-94), the Hauts-de-Seine players failed to reverse the trend this Saturday in Béarn. Once again beaten (81-71), they see the door to the semi-finals definitively close in front of them.
Flawless: PSG received 27 out of 27
HANDBALL. Little by little, PSG are getting closer to their goal: to finish the championship by achieving the full card, 30 victories in as many games. This is the only goal with the final of the Coupe de France against Nantes on June 11 since the elimination against Kiel 10 days ago in the quarter-finals of the Champions League. This Friday against the modest Saran, the players of Raul Gonzalez won without shaking (40-33). At a trot.
Qualification: Pontault loses but advances to the semi-finals
HANDBALL. After their big victory in Dijon (35-27) this Wednesday in the first leg, the players of Pontault-Combault had wide open the qualification for the semi-finals. They just had to validate their ticket during the return match this Saturday against the Burgundians. The latter played their all out and managed to win (28-31). A defeat which obviously does not call into question their qualification for the semi-finals which will take place on Saturday in Dijon.
In the first poster, Ivry, winner of the regular season and already guaranteed to go back to the Starligue, will face Sélestat at 3:15 p.m. And the teammates of Jean-Pierre Dupoux (4th in the regular season) will face Cherbourg (3rd in the regular season) at 6 p.m.
If Ivry goes to the final, the winner of the Pontault-Cherbourg match will automatically get their ticket to the Starligue. If Ivry falls in the semi-final, it will then be necessary to win in the final scheduled the next day at 3:15 p.m. against Sélestat to see higher.
The title: Stade Français champion of France in National 2
BASKET. The girls from Stade Français added the icing on the cake. Already assured of going up to National 1, the players of Christophe Denis, former coach of Paris-Levallois at the time of the Pro A, beat this Sunday Anglet (57-55) in the final at Vineuil (Loir-et-Cher) and win the title of National 2 French Champion. Another Ile-de-France team, Orly ranks third.
