Round 5 of the French Ligue A was completed last night without postponements. The feat of the evening was signed by Nantes who, trailing 0-2 and 24:25, managed to recover and beat Chaumont at the tie-break. Not even the debut of the opposite starting player Herrera (thrown into the field from 16:14 of the 2nd set) was able to stem the comeback of the home team. Two points from the top of the standings is Tours, who won 3-1 at Poitiers. Montpellier also wins away from 3 points (3-1 in Ajaccio). The picture closes with the 2-3 between Nice and Toulouse who manage to win the match behind closed doors led by the 32 points of the 21-year-old opposite Faure (top scorer of the evening).
