GROUP D REVIEW: USAM Nimes manage to secure a two-goal win that was not a certainty until the very end
 

The huge balance throughout the game is the most prominent storyline. Defenses sputtered the attacks in this game with both goalkeepers on fire.

But with the precious help of Mathieu Salou (seven goals, four of them in the last 8 minutes), the French side stamped another triumph in the EHF European League and have now seven points in Group D.

Desbonnet? USAM Nimes also have Paul
