Osniel Mergarejo (10 Att. of 21, 2 cont., 1 set, 3 fouls): The Cuban suffered a slight drop in reception in the third set, which left him on the bench, before returning to finish that long handle.
Raphael Corrie (2 part of 3, 0 dependent, 0 secret, 4 routing errors): Successful performance of the cevebist captain perfectly finding all his attackers across the width of the net, sometimes coming to pick a few less stable receiving balls over the net to replay again.
Fabian Black (6 part 8, follow-up one, 1 ser, 0 dir.): This is not the slightest waste of a Dutch player who has combined great success in attack, quality services and good work on the block.
Adrian Aciobanitei (12 Att. of 21, 2 cont., 0 ser., 6 fouls dir.): Facing his former club, the Roman showed that he definitely left a huge void in Kahn’s group. Once again valuable in the service chain, he also pulled the team out of tough situations on the net and was strong in reception.
Man of the Match: Jesus Herrera (15 hits out of 22, 1 rebound, 3 sets, 10 fouls): It is the Cuban face that has emerged in his final weeks that can help his team realize their ambitions. Admittedly, the striker had a bit of a waste on Saturday night, but that was largely erased by the credit given to him by his success and his realism, which on top of that in key moments.
Rami Alonso (6 c. of 9, 1 continued, 0 ser, 1 dir.): The central chaumontais found a real impact in the game throughout the meeting. Instead he was effective offensively, since from the first minutes of the match he significantly obstructed the opposing attackers in the penalty area. In addition, he served flawlessly and with tactical accuracy.
Franco Massimino (the Libero): A serious match from the Argentine, very strong in reception, was not always rewarded defensively with some “miraculous” gesture that was not then realized: sober and clean, like a collective cevebist.
Miguel Gutierrez (0 Att. of 1, 1 cont., 0 ser., 2 fouls dir.): Entering at the end of the third set, he immediately regained the advantage for his camp on the “block” against Ronald Jimenez. If the result on the grid is more accurate, at the reception, on the other hand, shamelessly keep his place.
