Sixth victory and bonus leadership position for Évreux VB at the end of the 6th day of the championship. Facing an eye-catching Amiens team, the Panthers had to work hard, Saturday November 2, 2024, to achieve a 6th success in as many matches (0-3).
The scoreboard is almost perfect for the Ebroicians, who before facing direct rivals, can boast of having taken 18 points out of 18 possible while losing only three sets along the way. In Picardy, the EVB was able to make the task easier by taking the meeting the right way. The Ebroïcian formation brilliantly contained the attacks of the Somme players to quickly take off. Successful in serving and solid in receiving, Évreux succeeded in almost everything in these initiatives to pocket the first set (11-18, 17-25).
The EVB now the sole leader
In the process, the Panthers had a much more difficult time breaking the opponent's barrier, so much so that the red lantern began to regain color (15-16). Even if the threat remained pressing, the Ébroïciennes, thanks to their experience in money-time management, dealt the blow (23-25).
After these few scares in the second set, the Panthers regained their composure to carry out their game plan and avoid further cold sweats, controlling the third set with conviction (12-17, 21-25). It is a successful dress rehearsal for the EVB, now the sole leader of the championship, which will now come up against these main rivals in the race for advancement: Valenciennes, Rennes and Sens.
In Longueau, Évreux beats Longueau-Amiens 3 to 0 (25-17, 25-23, 25-21)
