In advance of 2023/24 Marmara Spike League, second-placed Nantes Rezé celebrated a straight sets win over No.8 Paris (25:20, 25:19, 27:25).
Temporarily at -4 from leaders Chaumont, who tomorrow will face No.11 Poitiers, the winners were led in score by three players who closed the game in double digit: Chizoba Neves Atu, with 14 points to his name through 47% in attack, closely followed by Mathis Henno, who added 13 including 2 aces and 46% in attack, and Tomas Lopez, who added 10 with 1 block and 45% in attack.
Kento Miyaura, top scorer of the match, tallied 15 points for Paris (including 1 ace, 1 block and 46% in attack).
The hosts were able to dominate the game with the only exception of the very start of second set, in which they had to recover from 4-8, and in third one, in which they suffered Paris’ comeback from 21-17 to 23-23, until the decisive 27-25.
Tomorrow the others.
