Marmara Spikeligue (semi-finals, match 2)
A month ago Poitiers had your eyes in the void and fear had been instilled. The Alterna Stade Poitevin was led 2-0 by Tourcoing in the quarterfinals and the story was then closer to the end. And then, suddenly, everything has changed. A victory, the magic of Lawson-Body, a magnificent tie-break in Roubaix, certainties that agglomerate, a trusted confidence and everything has become possible.
Chaumont made it the sad observation, swept away in two matches by the 6th of the regular exercise, without ever being able to contest the poitevin superiority, materialized with brilliance Friday evening in a Lawson-Body which had stars full of eyes and love in the voice.
If not a heart of the third set a little more disputed, Poitiers was completely master of the situation (3-0). Carried by an attack on fire (62% offensive success), symbolized by the pointu Slovenian providential, Nik Mujanovic (21 pts including 3 counters), Poitiers has propelled in less than 1:30 in the final, thirteen years after his last appearance on the largest hexagonal scene, in 2012.
And while he takes a precious rest time, his opponent on the altar is still not designated, however. In Tours, Friday evening, Montpellier overthrew the table and the TVB with, after a high struggle and a success at Tie-Break (2-3), which offers her the beautiful at home this evening.
But this is not a guarantee of success for the Héraultais, already surprised once by Cannes then Tours in Chaban Delmas in Play-Offs. Nevertheless, on Friday, in a more liberated mental posture, Loïc Le Marrec’s troop was much more in its game standards. Despite the ferocity of Ryan Sclater (27 pts including 4 counters), the MHSC remained standing and was much more just offensively (59% of success in attack), like Dimitar Dimitrov (22 pts at 19 out of 30).
LBM (semi-finals, match 2)
It was almost relentlessly logic. In front of everyone in the regular season, Ajaccio and Fréjus will meet on Friday for the first round of an LBM final which was almost promised to them. Friday evening, Corsicans and Varois indeed folded the case in hostile land. Ajaccio has even made no details. Not the slightest procrastination for its own and clear success in Martigues (0-3) which places the Corsicans at a step of the msl climb now
Three sets without confusion, a monumental defense block which nailed the Martegal attack at 33% success. As soon as they are asked, Daniel Bala left Matej Patak (14 pts including 2 against) and Ajaccio took place peacefully on the Plot.
Fréjus had to work a little more to make the ASI reason (2-3). At home, Saint-Jean d’Illac led twice, cornocked in particular by his young pointed, Lucas Tessier (21 pts including 2 against). But Fréjus has the respondent and a collective strike force that ended up paying. With five players at 13 points and more and a real offensive success (55% in attack), the Varoise formation has of the world to drop the ball and Cédric Da Silva, in orchestration, knew how to perfectly vary the pleasures and find the right hand to lay his own on the way of Ajaccio, for a final at the top between the first two heads of standard LBM this season.
