Hungary – France
Although France was the clear-cut favorite of the match, the score initially remained very close (7:7) and Hungary even went up by two points, before France regained control of the operations to go for the final 25-20.
Hungary caught a good start also in set 2 going up 13:12 but the serving turn of Marien Moreau – 13 consecutive points – demolished Hungary’s defense and paved the way for the provisional 2:0 (25.15). France opened strong in set 3 (4:0) but Hungary drew level at 10 before the “Bleus” could cash their third consecutive win after comfortably cruising to the final 25-16.
