France: Narbonne defeat Montpellier at tie break in advance of Round 23

2 min read

Archived the semifinals of Coupe de France played on Tuesday (Grand Finale will be played on Sunday, April 2 in Paris), 2022/23 Ligue A continued today with a game valid as advance of Round 23.

Narbonne, who played without starting libero Luca Ramon (replaced by young outside hitter Victor Socié) and Brazilian outside hitter Vinicius Lersch de Silveira, celebrated a 3-2 home win against titleholders Montpellier (but now only at eighth place in the standings), although they wasted a 2-0 lead after two almost perfect sets. In third they literally collapsed and, although they recovered from a 1-5 disadvantage in fourth sets and a balanced level of play, the game has been decided at tie break in which Narbonne literally destroyed the rivals.
Partially it was 25:21, 25:22, 14:25, 20:25 and 15:6.

Willner Rivas (above all in fifht set) and Jordi Ramon top-scored the winning side with 20 and 19 points, respectively, but decisive was also a great performance in blocking, with 14 points from this element!
Theo Faure (next season in Italy, with Top Volley Cisterna’s jersey) scored 22 points on the losing side.
Round 23 will continue tomorrow with other 4 games, and it will be completed on Sunday with last two.
