France: Cambrai defeats Toulouse in the advance of Round 1
1 min readAfter the Super Cup, played last Saturday in Chaumont, kickoff this evening for the French Ligue A.
In the advance of Round 1, Toulouse was defeated on their home soil in four sets by Cambrai, after having squandered a 20-15 lead and 3 set points in the third set.
Surprisingly, MVP and top scorer of the match the outside-hitter Villard, author of 20 points, 57% in attack and 43% efficiency, theoretically third outside-hitter behind Yago and Truhtchev, but today in Cambrai’s starting six. Not a good day, on the other hand, for the great ex of the day, the Brazilian opposite Daniel Cagliari, who stops himself at 13 points with only 40% in attack and 10% efficiency.
