18h50
Bastien Vautier, top scorer
After 20 minutes – he played 8’40 – Bastien Vautier is the best scorer of the match for the moment with 8 points. Baptiste and Diarra are at 7 on the CSP side, like Wheeler at Cholet.
18h47
First half hooked
Cholet has never been able to take off: defensively, Fabrice Lefrançois’ men are rather serious, but lack a little inspiration in attack. The absence of TJ Campbell probably plays a role… Cholet also lacks close range skill (55% in the racket).

QT2. 18-22, 12′
The pivot of Cholet is in his match. It’s more difficult for Boris Dallo, a little short of rhythm and automatisms. He has already lost 3 balls.
