Four sets home win also for Plessis-Robinson over Cambrai (22:25, 25:19, 25:22, 25:23), in a match in which the performance in blocking made the difference: 11 points from this element for the winners, who were better also in serving, with 6 aces against the only 2 of the rivals, despite another great performance from their opposite Hermans Egleskalns, author of 25 points and 59% in attack, absolute top scorer of the match.
