Earvin in beast mode. Barely blinked and dude already has 19 points.
ETA: Boyer simply can't spike in pos. 4, can he.

So many mistakes from both sides, yikes. I expected a higher level, especially from the French tbh. Not a very entertaining match so far.r
Not e ntertaining? What the hell are you watching? Stakes are high, euro semis. Raucous french crowd. Close sets, plenty of showboating back and forth between the likes of Kovacevic and Ngapeth..this is SUPERB.

France has been stuck in the weak side for 3 points.

Yeah, I'm not feeling it too much. But happy for you I guess?
-
I appreciate the rallies but there are so many mistakes from both sides that are creating those chances.
-
Third set goes to Serbia. I won't blame France since it's hard to defeat Serbia when Lisinac and Atanasijevic are on fire. But to be honest, they've been doing a lot of mistakes. Only N'gapeth performing great won't do much, Boyer should also be in a good shape, and keep it during the set.
-
France is killing themselves. Toniutti or probably the MBs are calling the wrong plays to attack.
They are defending quite well but messy in the counter attack. Even Grebennikov made a mistake with a chance ball situation. That's unusual for him. I think they are trying to outpace the serbian block but it ends up being blocked anyway because Lyneel as a lefty tried to be more aggressive with the serbian wall instead of exploring it like Uros does.
-
Serbia leads 2-1. France simply can't play anymore. They struggle with passing and spiking just too much.
How long can Serbia put this big pressure from the service line?
Lyneel is back. Ivovic starts instead of Petric.

-
Do the italian commentators remember who Ivovic is? The last time they saw him (destroying Italy) they had no idea who he was just because he never played for an italian club.
I haven't heard anything about him this time(I try my best for not hearing them), they probably don't even notice he came in for Petric
-
It seems Toniutti finally found a way to trick Serbian block, providing perfect sets for N'gapeth, nevertheless the Serbian serve is still putting lots of pressure on reception. France serving seems to be working now. Are we going for a 5th? France seems to be back with a decent block and reception, plus good sets and serves.
-
Woah Atanasijevic finally got blocked. I guess France will make it this set if Serbia keeps this horrible performance. And here Atanasijevic spikes it out, a result of a bad set from Serbian side.

I agree ! Additionally killing blocks and some aces.
-
9-16. Yes N'gapeth finds the gap between two blocks and sends the ball right through it to the Serbia's side. Another point makes it 9-17. I guess it's pretty safe to say France have got the fourth set.
-
Lyneel is very useful if he plays at his normal level.
He has a great serve, and as a left-hand OH, he is not afraid of the weak side.
Lyneel's reception and dig are as solid as Tillie.
-
Finally Le Roux scored a point
, he's a decoration on court -
The set #5 is coming. If Serbia can turn this set around, I will shut up for a month.
-
Now THIS is what I was expecting from France.
-
N'gapeth has been performing superbly tonight. How many aces for Lyneel until now? Even with his serve errors, he's had a night full of aces. Boyer also has been good, having ups and downs but finally doing what he should do in the fourth set and crucial points.
Atanasijevic choking again....

Petric vs Ngapeth
