The Barça handball team were victorious at Granollers this Sunday, but a derby away to the team in second place was not an easy test at all.
With the game preceded by a minute's silence in memory of the victims of the tragedy in Spain this week, the game began with Hampus Wanne scoring four of the first six points. With Aleix also chipping in a fine contribution, Barça led throughout the first half, and a let surge widened the gap to five.
It looked like that was the game decided, but Granollers hit three in a row to get back to within two, and after the break they had a series of chances to get the scores level.
With Pau Panitti brilliant between the home posts, at 25-26 we were headed for a nerve.tingling finales. But Barça regrouped in the nick of time, re-established a five point lead and that was no way back time for Granollers.
