France: Chaumont defeats Montpellier in big match of Round 5. Win also for Toulouse and Nantes

Another three matches valid for Round 5 of French Ligue A were played yesterday.
In the big match of the weekend between two of the main candidates for the title, Chaumont defeated Montpellier at the tie-break, recovering from 1-2.
Bad night for guests from the service line: only 1 ace and 22 errors.
Another misstep for defending champions Cannes, unexpectedly overwhelmed at home by Toulouse by the excellent Panou (MVP of the match) and Daniel Cagliari.
Predictions were also subverted in Nantes, where the home team beat a Tourcoing in four sets. A Tourcoing that, just like Cannes, are unable to find the right pace at this start to the season.
