• Besancon had only a 39 per cent attack efficiency and didn’t perform good in defence allowing opponents to get a six-goal lead at half time
• things changed in the second half; the home team’s defence started to decline and Florence Bonnet stopped some important Sola’s shots, allowing Clarisse Mairot to close the gap to 23:24
• the home team pushed their limits in the last ten minutes of the match and regained the lead for the final 33:27 win
• Besancon will play against Bietigheim in the quarter-finals, a team who won all six matches of group phase; Sola’s opponent in knock-out stage will be Baia Mare

Camilla Herrem: Enough said

She is a true leader of the team and we see that in every match. One of the best Norwegian players, once again, scored in crucial parts of the match and was an important link for this win. Her 12 goals out of 15 attempts were not only hard to stop, but also a pleasure to watch.
