Nice went to Toulouse with high hopes but returned disappointed.
Following a series of defeats, the Toulouse team had a lot riding on this evening; another loss would have severely impacted their season. They could only hope to bounce back with a victory against a Nice team that gradually allowed itself to be dominated.
Jorans Corteggiani put in a stellar performance (19 points), well supported by his teammates. On the Nice side, while the flying Dutchman Robin Overbeeke (26 points) confirmed his status as one of the most remarkable scorers in the championship, only Rod Ah-Kong stood out (12).
The sets (25-19, 18-25, 25-12, 25-21) for Toulouse confirm the superiority of the Occitans, who, with this victory, catch up with the Azurรฉens (3 wins – 4 losses) in the standings.
