The second part started in the opposite direction of the first with a visitor goal after 3 minutes of play (4-2 / 28’17). Drancy could not develop his game, being oppressed by Villejuif who recolled to a unit on a defensive error (4-3 / 37’10). The tension went up, the faults became harder, which gave two Direct Coups in favor of the Drancéens, who did not concretize them. And it was the Villejuifoise team that came back and put the doubt in the drancéennes heads (4-4 / 40’28).
It remained 10 minutes to hold, 10 minutes to push, to score, to get out. This questioning that any coach asks himself to make the changes … But Drancy made the first mistake with his 10th team foul and therefore a Direct Coup-Franc for the visitors, stopped by the night guard C. Belliot.
