The Cannet volleyball players have just won the second French Cup in the club's history after 2015!

Saturday afternoon, the players dominated their neighbors RC Cannes 3 sets to 1 (25-12, 25-19, 19-25, 25-23), during this Côte d'Azur final.

Thanks to this success, the Volero offers itself its second Coupe de France, the first reward of a season mastered so far with a first place in the classification of the Women's League A (three defeats, including two in the tie-break, in 26 games) before the start of the play-offs.

"For me, it's the first Coupe de France, I'm very happy"

For two and a half sets, the Cannetanes outclassed Cannes, before the mechanics got bogged down on a challenge from Volero coach Lorenzo Micelli, convinced that the scorer's table had forgotten a point for his team in the middle of the third. set.

RC Cannes, which was aiming for a 21st Coupe de France for the year of the centenary of the club, took the opportunity to revive itself by pocketing the gain of the 3rd set.

“It was very complicated.

In the third set, there were a lot of emotions.

The girls wanted to win in the fourth set.

Congratulations to my team.

For me, it's the first Coupe de France, I'm very happy, ”rejoiced Lorenzo Micelli at the microphone of the Sport channel in France.

The Volero was able to count on its sharp Cuban Heidy Casanova, who arrived at the beginning of March from the side of Cannet and who scored 27 points including 4 aces, in the final.

Le Cannet will try to achieve the Cup/Ligue A double and will begin their quest for a first French championship title next week with the quarter-finals, against Marcq-en-Barœul in the best of three rounds.
