#France: Tours see the final. Clamorous comeback in Nice.
1 min read
Below 2-0 in the set account and then also 16:9 in the 4th set and 14:12 in the tie-break (recovered thanks to three Galabov’s consecutive errors in defense) Tours, leader of the regular season, succeeds in a unexpected comeback on the field of Nice and sees the qualification for the final.
The 9 winning-blocks of Çuk (17 in total for the home team) and the 29 points of Overbeeke (who despite has brought out the last attack, he has played an excellent game) are not enough for Nice. Tours won also thanks to the 12 aces (against 8) and the lowest number of errors in attack (7 against 14).
