To everyone’s surprise, Nice Volley Ball lost 3-0 at home against Saint-Quentin, who was second to last in the standings before the match. It was a very poor performance for Mladen Kasic’s men, who dropped to third place in the Ligue B standings.
This 13th and last day of the first half of the Ligue B season was eventful. The two leaders, Avignon and Nice, were caught off guard and were the big losers of the weekend. Mladen Kasic’s players were defeated at home by Saint Quentin with a decisive 0-3 scoreline (24-26, 23-25, 22-25). An unexpected poor performance, especially after last week’s good match against the leader Avignon, despite the 3-2 loss.
Harnes new leader
But the Eagles were not the only ones caught by surprise. Harnes also made an impression by winning 3-0 against Avignon. As a result, the club from Vaucluse had to relinquish their top position to their conqueror of the day. The team from Nice also lost a place in the standings and now find themselves in third place. They could have even slipped off the podium if Saint-Nazaire (4th) had secured a clearer victory against Cambrai (3-2). However, nothing is lost for the Azuréens who are only three points behind the leader.
