Tomorrow, the Hauts-de-France judo team welcomes the Marseillais from the OM judo club at 7 p.m. at the Coliseum in Amiens. After a first victory against Juniville Marnava Grand Est, the Northerners will want to continue against a team looking for a first victory.
Following a small scare against the Grands-Estois, the Hauts-de-France team will want to secure a second victory at home against OM Judo. “The team feels good, they are very motivated. After a difficult last year, we strengthened ourselves and gained experience. The great victory against Juniville gives us confidence« Lilian Barreyre tells us.
The Marseillais lost on the first day against the reigning champions of Nice. “This performance does not reveal the capabilities of this team. It is a solid team with high-performance athletes, particularly in -52 kg, (Micaela Sciacovelli, 3th at the Junior Individual World Championships in 2023). They have great potential but certain categories remain affordable. » admits L.Barreyre, “It will be up to us to ensure in the important matches and score the six points. »
A first step towards the quarter-finals was taken last week, a second can be taken tomorrow. “A second victory would give us a lot of confidence and we would have already done half the work” says L.Barreyre. After a sold out last week, the team will be able to count on the support of more than 700 spectators who have already taken their seats. The coach hopes to see 800 spectators to show that the best atmosphere is in the North!
