Coupe de France: Tours defeat at tie break a very combative Toulouse to become last quarterfinalist

As predicted, after dominating regular season, last quarterfinalist of Coupe de France is Tours but, after being unrecognizable in both matches of CEV Cup Final against italians of Vero Volley Monza, coach Fronckowiak’s guys confirmed themselves in a bad moment, risking a defeat also on the field of Toulouse (with Thiaguinho back to the court, and an excellent Madsen with 20 points and 60% in attack).
In fact, the match ended only at 16-18 of fifth set, after several changes and a 2-1 lead of the hosts, as well as with a 12-10 advantange also in decisive set.
However, for playoffs, opposite Abouba may appear on the court after his long stop due Achilles tendon rupture, and today finally on the bench.
