In the end the home fans left disappointed as their team paid the price for a poor first quarter in which they managed just 4 points in the paint and allowing Bourges to open up a 13-point lead (13-26).
Villeneuve spent the rest of the game chasing after the score without much success. Both sides were frustrated with the officiating which was at times bizarre.
For Villeneuve d'Ascq, Jillian Robbins played her final game. She is released from 1 October because the club wants to bring in a player in the style to Elodie Bertal.

Bourges Basket domine Villeneuve d'Ascq handicappé dans la raquette
On presque retrouve l'ancienne machine de Bourges Basket avec une Endéné Miyem en feu qui marque déjà 11 points de ses 24 en total dans le premier quart-temps et une Céline Dumerc qui assure pour que Bourges Basket a l'avantage (26-13) après dix minutes.
Le manque des joueuses dans la raquette pour Villeneuve d'Ascq avec que Olayinka Sanni qui tempte le tout, l'ESBVA essaye de serrer la défense pour revenir sur leurs adversaires.
Villeneuve avec Anne Breitreiner et ses deux tirs-primés se rapprochent aux Berruyères (26-30). Mais Bourges se réveille et Cathy Joens termine les attaques avec un tirs-primé pour prendre un avantage de 9 points à la fin du deuxième quart-temps (37-28).
La deuxième mi-temps voit une équipe ESBVA sonnée avec seule Emilie Gomis capable de se battre marquant les derniers 8 points dont 2 tirs-primés du troisième quart-temps (47-59).
Pourtant Jennifer Digbeu (dans l'images) et Joens lui répondent et conclurent le match avec un bon avantage (79-60).
Du côté de Villeneuve, l'entraîneur Abdou N’Diaye remplace l'absente Elodie Bertal par l'Américaine Cathrine Kraayveld pour renforcer les intérieures. Par conséquence, l'Américaine Jillian Robbins quitte l'aventure de la ligue avec ESBVA-LM.
