The fans witnessed two matches that kept everyone on edge until the final whistle. Review the second leg finals: [Video: YouTube] Winning with a lead from the first leg, the Robertines came with the firm intention of clinching the title in two games. The start of the match was similar to the clash from the day before. The score evolved slowly as both teams tried to dominate the center. The Robertin coach quickly reacted by putting the players back in their preferred positions. This move quickly led to successful teamwork, and Rodolphe Gina’s girls made a breakthrough, leading by 11 points at halftime. Returning from the break, MEG players tried to disrupt the Robertin game, but without much success. The players in orange, sensing victory, left no room for the opponent. Despite changes made by Teddy Nordin, the Samaritano-Trinitarians seemed tired and lacking energy. In the end, despite a final effort, MEG conceded the title to Arsenal with a final score of 23-19. A very close marking. The “Citron” victory was hard to swallow for the Josphines, as they believed their third appearance in the final of the top teams would be the charm. They returned with confidence to have the chance to play a decisive match. At the start of this match, both teams were evenly matched. USCC was more aggressive and confident in their play but the Josphines fought back, though too late. At halftime, Privat’s men had two units to equalize. At the start of the second half, both defenses hardened significantly, leading to numerous 7-meter throws and several 2-minute exclusions. The second half was marked by equality, but the Foyalais were the first to take a 2-goal lead. Trying to catch up quickly, Club Sports made mistakes and saw their dreams slip away under William-Gallas’s renewed attacks. USCC crowned champions 2025/2026 after defeating Club Sports 30-26.
