And that became their 27th victory over the last 30 days. That also means that Roca Team for sure has a ticket to the next League des Champions.
Despite the good start of the Parisians, Roca Team didn’t lose its spirit and was fighting right to the end. And it is in the very end when the difference was made. Thanks to the 3-points goal from Dee Bost and 5 extra quarter added by judge at the end of the game, the Monegasques managed to scratch the victory in the game.
First (21-15) and second (24-17) quarters were in favor of the team Paris-Levallois. But that didn’t help Parisian team to win against the Monegasques.

So after the fourth quarter the game was in draw. That’s why judges added the fifth quarter to play. The count in this last one (10-16) was in favor of Roca Team and the victory was theirs.
«Despite the fatigue that we obviously had after the final of the League des Champions, after the second quarter we managed to pull ourselves together and show everybody that we still have force to fight», – Yakuba Ouattara said after the game.
