Playoffs 5th Place for a ticket for next edition of Challenge Cup continued today with all games of third round.
Straight sets win for Montpellier and Paris, against Poitiers and Narbonne, respectively.
But, interestingly, thanks to the victory and consequent qualification to the final of Tours, who eliminated Tourcoing in Game 2 on Wednesday, Narbonne is already qualified for CEV Cup!
In details, with the only exception of second set, Montpellier defeat at home Poitiers without major problems (25:14, 25:23, 25:21), with 14 points, all in attack, of top scorer Theo Faure, and 11 by MVP Audric Taramini (1 block, 1 ace and 67% in attack) and Nicholas Legoff (3 winning blocks and 80% in attack, 8/10).
Paris, on the other hand, needed just 1 hours and 13 minutes to win against the substitutes of Narbonne (25:22, 25:11 and 25:20) without players in double digit, only 34% in attack and their ticket for CEV Cup in their pocket. MVP of the game libero Dimitri Renaud.
Close the picture the tie break win of Saint Nazaire against Sète 3-2 (25:19, 26:28, 34:32, 20:25, 15:11). MVP and top scorer of the match Marino Marelic with 24 points through 56% in attack, 1 ace and 1 block. Both sides now have 5 points in the standings, -1 from Paris and Montpellier.
