Match Info
Paris Women survived a major scare to defeat Maritsa Plovdiv 3-2 in their CEV Champions League group stage match on February 5, 2026. The French side eventually prevailed in a five-set battle, securing a hard-earned three points in Pool C against a determined Bulgarian opponent. Paris seemed in control after winning the first two sets but was pegged back by a resilient Maritsa side, forcing a dramatic decider where experience ultimately told. The key moment came with Paris trailing in the fifth set; their captain stepped up with two consecutive aces to swing the momentum and guide her team over the line. The focus was on the offensive duel between the two team's opposites, with the Paris player ultimately edging it with 28 points. This victory, while messy, keeps Paris's qualification hopes alive and provides a valuable lesson. The Paris coach admitted relief at the result, and the Maritsa manager expressed immense pride in her team's fighting spirit against a more fancied rival.
