France: Tours beat Paris in advance of Round 17

Round 17 of 2022/23 Ligue A started today with leaders Tours who, after a home defeat last Sunday against Narbonne, celebrated a 1-3 (25:22, 19:25, 27:29, 21:25) win on the field of Paris to confirm themselves to the top of the current charts with 42 points and +6 from Nantes, who tomorrow will face Poitiers.
Today Tours literally block their rivals, scoring as many as 17 points from this element, 6 by Michael Parkinson and setter Zeljko Coric (7 points for him!), while Aboubacar Drame Neto played an almost perfect game, putting down 25 points through an excellent 70% in attack, including 1 block and 1 ace.
