The recent final of the African Handball Super Cup held in Oran, Algeria, brought surprises to the African sports scene. The clash between Jeunesse Sportive de Kinshasa (JSK) and BMC, a Congolese club from Brazzaville, captivated handball enthusiasts.
JSK faced a significant defeat of 21 to 38 against BMC, showcasing a poor performance that contrasted with Congo Brazzaville’s success in winning silver medals at the 13th African Games in Accra, Ghana. JSK struggled to display efficiency and defensive mastery, allowing BMC to establish and maintain a considerable lead throughout the match.
This disappointment continued as JSK ended up in 4th place in the tournament without securing a single victory. Their defeat in the semi-final against Zamalek (29-41) marked a turning point in their Super Cup campaign.
On the brighter side, Al Ahly triumphed against Zamalek (23-21) in the men’s category, and Primerio claimed victory against Petro (31-28) in the women’s division. These results emphasize the competitive and diverse nature of handball in Africa, providing fans with intense and unpredictable encounters.
The African Handball Super Cup once again highlighted the talent and dedication of African athletes in this demanding sport. Despite JSK’s challenges, these competitions play a crucial role in promoting handball on the continent, offering thrilling moments for fans.
