Valentini secures last-gasp victory for Metz
In a nail-biting finish after an exciting match, Metz Handball beat Györi Audi ETO KC for the second time in the EHF Champions League this season to remain as group B leaders.
The Hungarian powerhouse made a comeback powered by Ana Gros and Sandra Toft midway through the first half that appeared to completely change the course of the match.
However, in the final moments, Metz's trio of Hatadou Sako, Kristina Jørgensen and Chloé Valentini lifted the team and secured an important win in the battle for a quarter-final spot with only two rounds to go.
Of course I'm very happy with the result. I don't know if we deserved to win, but we led for most of the game. The atmosphere tonight was unbelievable and I don't know if it was possible to lose with it. Anyway, I am very proud of my team.
I can't say much more, I'm so proud of my team, the staff and all the people around the club. I didn't think I could do so many wonderful things. We work very hard and grow every day to experience things like this.
