USAM Nimes extend winning streak
After three consecutive wins in all competitions, USAM Nimes collected their fourth triumph in group B of the EHF European League Men, defeating Tatran Presov 25:20 in France.
Similar to what happened in Slovakia, the collective power of the French team was greater than Presov's and helped them secure their fourth win in group B.

USAM Nimes collective strength proves the difference
With the score at 7:7 after 18 minutes, the match was evenly balanced. But shortly after the break, Nimes enjoyed a 4:0 run, improving the score from 12:11 to 16:11, and Presov could not close the gap thereafter.
Four of French team's players scored four goals, and the power of their playing group and the depth in their squad made the difference on Tuesday.
The most important thing is the victory – because it is never easy to win a European Cup match. Maybe we could have mastered the game more by being a little more rigorous in our duels with the goalkeepers, but the essentials have been taken for granted and now we're going to Berlin to play another top game.
