Round 17 of 2023/24 Marmara Spike League started today with the derby between Saint Nazaire and Nantes Rezé, won at tie break by the latter after a great comeback from 2-0 – 2-3 (25:19, 25:23, 18:25, 22:25, 12:15).
After 2 hours and 32 minutes of play in which the winners were able to keep the control of the game from third to decisive fifth set, Chizoba Neves Atu ended the encounter as absolute top scorer for Nantes scoring 29 points to his name through 50% in attack, 4 winning blocks and 3 aces, while Jordan Ewert and Kyle Ensing tallied 21 and 20 points respectively for Saint Nazaire.
Nothing changes in the standings, as today’s hosts remain to the second place with 35 points -4 from leaders Chaumont, who tomorrow will face Plessis Robinson at home, now at +1 from the same Nantes, who remain at third place.
Tomorrow the others.
