23:12
HBC Nantes coach Alberto Entrerrios - "The key was our reaction during the 2nd half. We played with more intensity, especially during the money-time."

Both Group B matches were on a knife edge for so long! In Nantes, the away side would have been dreaming of getting points on the board, but it wasn't to be.

Close but not close enough tonight for Aalborg, but this was special! Finished off by Nicolaj Christensen
22:23
Sebastian Barthold top scored in the Kiel v Aaloborg match with 7 despite ending up on the losing side.
But a special shout out to Valero Rivera who reached double figures for Nantes tonight! 10/13 against Zagreb.

Drama in Kiel too! After being down for most of the second half, the Zebras turn things around late on against Aalborg to win 28:26
22:12
Heartbreak for Zagreb as they see a 28:27 lead disappear and lose 30:28. They remain without points in Group B
Congratulations to Nantes who move on to 10 points
A fantastically close game that could have gone either way
22:11
Nantes go 2 goals ahead before another Nielsen save, is that Zagreb's chance gone?
22:10
A 7m save keeps Zagreb alive, still 29:28, 2'
22:08
Nielsen makes a save and then his Nantes team go down the court and score, 29:28, 3' to play
22:03
Meanwhile in Kiel, Aalborg are maintaining a two-goal cushion, 23:25
22:01
Close, edgy, nervy... add in your own words to describe how tight Nantes v Zagreb has been!
It's 27:26, Zagreb with the ball

Also in Group B and at 20:45, Nantes in 6th welcome last-placed Zagreb. It's all smiles for now but I'm not sure how much longer that will last!

19:54
Under 15 minutes to go now and we're all a bit stunned, 30:16 to PSG! They have looked different class this evening.
