On Parisian soil, Narbonne defeated Paris in four sets (25-23, 25-22, 17-25, 27-25), this Monday evening. Thanks to this fifth success in the regular season, the Narbonnese are in seventh place in the standings.
Solid against the block, Guillermo Falasca’s men easily dominated the Parisians in the first two sets of this match. But in front of their spectators, the locals quickly rallied to take the lead, over the more feverish Narbonnese, during the third round. At the end of a very tight final set, the guests, long behind, finally managed to get the upper hand on their opponents and pocket their second consecutive victory this season.
Scorer of 23 points, Narbonne forward-receiver Willner Rivas was elected man of the match. On the Paris side, Joachim Panou (14 points, 1 ace) was the most effective with his friend Nicolas Mendez (12 points) and central Mathaus Jurkovics (12 points, 1 ace).
