In other match, Poitiers produced a solid road performance against Tourcoing. The visitors secured a straight-sets win, 25:22, 25:18, 25:22, controlling the rhythm of the contest and keeping the home side at arm’s length throughout.
The round had begun Thursday with Paris defeating Montpellier 3-1 (23:25, 25:23, 25:17, 25:19).
