Volleyball fans now place Saint-Nazaire on the map of Europe. Wednesday November 13, 2024, the team of volley-ball from Saint-Nazaire (Loire-Atlantique) thrilled his supporters by winning Ankara in Türkiye as part of the 1st day of Champions League.

A stifling match

A real exploit accomplished at the end of a stifling scenario since the Nazairiens went for victory in the 5th set (26-24).

Leading (1-0) then trailing (1-2), the Nazairiens, led by MVP Jordan Ewert, were able to show character and composure to achieve a magnificent collective victory at the end of a tie break of MADNESS (26-24).

An XXL performance from the reigning French champions that must also be recontextualized.

In an interview from September 20, 2024, Gilles Gosselinmanager of the SNVBA, returned to the budget differences between his European adversaries.

Perugia [champion d’Italie en titre, N.D.L.R]it's 5 times our budget and maybe 4 times for Ankara [ancien club d’Earvin Ngapeth, N.D.L.R.]. The Czech team from Budejovice must be at our level.

Against Perugia next Tuesday

From now on, a busy schedule awaits Fulvio Bertini's men.

After a trip to Sète, Saturday, for the 8th day of the French championship, the Nazairiens will welcome Perugia (3-0 winner against Budejovice) this Tuesday November 19 for their first Champions League match at home, The Saucer.

The single price is €25 per match and placement will be free.
