Brazilian Chisoba won again (20 points, 2 aces, 1 against on 17/35), and the rising young French passer, 19-year-old Anatole Chaboissant, was brought into orbit. But NRMV showed particularly unsuspecting resources, overcoming a fresh injury (ankle) to Brazilian center Montes Petrus. François Huets, who briefly entered his stride at the end of the second set, was unfazed by a counter and decisive attack. The author of 15 points and very prominent in reception (58% accuracy), the Argentinian Tomas Lopez was named MVP of the meeting.
