The first victory of the Hungarian team in the Golden League

France played the first match in this tournament, while their group rivals were already playing each other.

In the first set, the Hungarians calmly seized the advantage and won with a comfortable advantage of 5 points - 25:20. In the second set, the wards of Emile Rousseaux entered the fight much more confidently, which is quite logical, because the French held this meeting on their home ground and with their fans. They skillfully held back the attack of their rivals, forcing the Hungarians to make mistakes. By the turn of 20 points, the French team approached with an advantage of 4 points. They calmly finished this game until 25:19, thereby equalizing the score in sets.

In the third set, France played more confident in attack, but their rivals managed to make 3 aces in total and regain the leading position, finishing this game segment with a score of 25:22.

At the end of the 4th set, the French women tried to make a comeback and move the match into the decisive fifth set, but it did not work out and they lost 3-1.

Hungary thus secured their first group win at the tournament and finished second in the group. The French team, with one defeat, is in last place in Pool C.
