This season, in Ligue 2, there are them and the others. The Mondevillaises and Toulousaines have distinguished themselves from first place in the ranking since the first months of competition. Many are those who imagine the title, and therefore the accession to the Women’s League, are played between them at the end of the playoffs. If the classification remains as it is, Toulouse first and Mondeville second, the highly anticipated final could take place.
“Not a final before the hour”
In the meantime, the USOM and the TMB have an appointment at the Halle Bérégovoy this Saturday, March 5, 2022 (8:00 p.m.). “I don’t feel like it’s a final before the hour, tempers Sarah Ousfar. These are two teams that want to move up very quickly in the Women’s League, but we must not put the cart before the horse. “There is still a championship to be completed and positions to be confirmed. With its two victories ahead of its runner-up, Toulouse seems calm.
It’s the in-form team. It remains on ten victories in a row.
The last defeat of Toulouse dates back to the reception of Mondeville, November 20, 2021. That day, the Normans had made a strong impression (58-68). “But they lacked their best player, Kalis Loyd (19.5 points, 8 rebounds per game, editor’s note), and a position 5, underlines Sarah Ousfar. We won that they were reduced. “For the revenge, Toulouse will probably be better armed. “We will have to stay focused, limit errors and put a lot of intensity in defense. »
“Be more aggressive”
Winner of his last three games, Mondeville has regained a smile and confidence. “We win as a team. We share the ball, ”appreciates Sarah Ousfar. The latter received the renewal of her team, according to her coach. “Sarah understood that she was not just a defender. She is taking on a role that she had never had before, ”said Romain L’Hermitte.
He asked me to be more aggressive, to create a little more for others and for myself. That’s what I’m trying to do, it works.
A follower of metaphors, Sarah Ousfar compares her season to a “diesel engine”. “We start slowly, things are going a little better, I hope to finish very strongly with the playoffs. I’m a bit like that. I’m trying to step up. “Sixth player in Angers, the interior is part of the team in Mondeville. “I had a bit of the same responsibilities last season,” she says. Very experienced in Ligue 2, Sarah Ousfar hopes to finally return to the LFB next season with Mondeville.
