The only match counting for the 37th day of Ligue Magnus taking place this Friday saw the surprise victory of the red lantern Chamonix against Rouen with the score of 4-3.
The year 2022 begins with a big surprise in the Magnus League! Due to the many cases of covid within the roster, only one match of the 37th day of the regular season could take place this Friday, and it was the scene of a big surprise. Chamonix, the red lantern, has indeed imposed at home against Rouen, which tries a rise in the standings thanks to its many late matches. The Pioneers won 4-3 after a game of twists and turns. If the score is spectacular, no goal was scored in the first third. But everything was packed in the second. Clément Masson opened the scoring for Chamonix in the 2nd in numerical superiority, but Kelsey Tessier (34th) and Vincent Nesa (39th) gave the advantage to the Normans. A short-lived advantage, because 34 seconds after Nesa’s goal, Masson scored again to equalize.
Silfver hero of Chamonix
Chamonix took control in the 43rd thanks to Vincent Kara, but Nesa answered him five minutes later (3-3). And finally, eight minutes from the end of regulation time, it was the Finnish Christian Silfver who offered the victory to the Pioneers. A fifth victory only this season, which allows Chamonix to return to a point behind the penultimate, Briançon, but with four more games to go Rouen, for its part, is stopped in its tracks and remains third, sixteen points behind the leader Grenoble and seven points behind the runner-up Angers, but with three more games to play. The three matches scheduled for Saturday in the Magnus League are postponed, but not that of Sunday, between Gap and Chamonix.
