Brest Bretagne Handball secured a decisive 40‑25 victory over CSM București in the seventh round of the Women’s EHF Champions League, extending their winning streak in the competition to five games. The match, played at Brest’s home arena, saw the French side dominate from the start, leading 20‑11 at halftime and never relinquishing control. CSM București’s scorers were Emma Friis and Valeria Maslova, each netting eight goals, followed by Tyra Axner (3), Jenny Carlson (2), Daria Dmitrieva, Kristina Novak, Tatjana Brnovic and Csenge Kuczora (1 each). Goalkeeper Denisa Şandru made five saves from 29 shots (17.24 %), while Yuliya Dumanska saved one of six attempts (16.67 %). Brest’s offensive output was led by Clarisse Mairot (9), Oriane Ondono and Annika Lott (6 each), Meline Nocandy (5), Pauline Coatanea (4), Kiara Tshimanga and Tamara Horacek (3 each), Enola Borg (2) and Sofia Hvenfelt and Daria Michalak (1 each). Goalkeeper Camille Depuiset recorded 12 saves from 36 shots (33.33 %), whereas Floriane Andre did not record a save in a single attempt. The French club’s triumph was praised by the French daily L’Équipe, which noted that Brest had “breathed a sigh of relief” after an inconsistent season. The article highlighted Brest’s current second-place standing in the Ligue Butagaz Énergie, just behind the unbeaten Metz, and described the win as a “welcome boost” following two consecutive defeats.
