23-21 – France managed to steal one defence and guess who scored on the counter attack? Yes, it was Ngapeth.
21-21 – Grozer puts a hammer down for the equaliser. Who will run off with the second set, it’s something of a do or die for Germany now.
16-15 – Every time when France seem to be in any kind of trouble, Toniutti finds Ngapeth and problems are gone. What a player Earvin Ngapeth, what a player.
14-15 – It’s much more even battle in the second set, Germany found their game and are coming back into the game with force. Heynen’s boys are now in the lead.
