Anglet Hormadi a subit sa quatrième défaite en autant de rencontres en s’inclinant 6–1 face à Angers à l’IceParc. The Basque side struggled to contain an aggressive host team that capitalized on early scoring chances and maintained offensive pressure throughout the match.
Early Scoring and First-Period Action
Angers opened the scoring quickly as Tavernier beat Anglet goaltender Grande into the top corner at 8:58 to make it 2–0, following multiple saves by Grande on preceding plays. Anglet responded during their second power play when Filip Forksmark scored with a precise shot into the top corner against Angers goaltender Antoine Gilbert at 16:50. That narrowed the deficit to 2–1, but Angers answered immediately on the ensuing faceoff. Charbonneau fired past Grande at 16:58, restoring a two-goal lead at 3–1 to close out a chaotic first period. Angers maintained its momentum into the second period under coach Sylvain Roy. The hosts broke through the Anglet defense with two goals in a 27-second span, as Halley and Centazzo scored at 26:53 and 27:20 respectively to extend the lead to 5–1. Anglet managed few offensive incursions, hitting the crossbar on one of their rare chances, but failed to shift the momentum against the solid Angers defense.
Closing Stages and Next Steps
Trailing heavily in the third period, Arnaud Faure and his teammates increased their offensive efforts but could not solve Gilbert, whose unconventional style proved effective against Basque attacks. Tavernier secured his second goal of the night at 48:52, capitalizing on a rebound from a loose save by Grande to push the score to 6–1. Anglet failed to capitalize on a late power play opportunity, sealing the 6–1 defeat. The team now faces the task of regrouping before hosting Grenoble on a Sunday afternoon.
