A saving intensity, printed by the doublet Julien Winkelmuller (24 points) – Lohan Nack Minyem (12 points, 8 blocks), which allowed them to take the first two sets (25-21, 29-27), then to do nothing let go despite the return of the Tourangeaux (22-25, 22-25). Enough to win in the tie-break after more than two hours of match and achieve a first success this season. Tours, for its part, conceded a second defeat, having been beaten by Nicolas Le Goff’s Montpellier on the first day.
