France: Chaumont defeats last-placed Cannes. Win also for Narbonne, Nice, Montpellier and unbeaten Tours
2 min readRound 11 of French Ligue A was completed on Saturday night.
Leaders Tours remain unbeaten, by beating a very combative Nantes, especially in second set, in straight sets.
Behind them a very good Narbonne, able to defeats in four sets Toulouse, despite the absence of Zanotti and also the one of Rafael Araujo.
At third place Chaumont that, after an European defeat, back to the victory with a clear 0-3 on the field of defending champions Cannes in a remake of last final and SuperCup played in October and ended with the same result. The hosts tried a desperate comeback from 2-9 to 19-17 in third set, to surrender to 3 aces from MVP Aciobanitei, that worth 19-22 and then the final 21-25. And with this result, after Poitiers’ victory on Friday, Cannes remain to the bottom of the standings. Close the picture Montpellier’s 3-1 victory over newcomers Plessis Robinson, and a great away win of Nice on the field of Cambrai, with the same result.
