Confident and powerful table tennis which demonstrated OVTCHAROV and SAMSONOV brought the club the planned victory. Our opponent in the semi-finals is another French club VS Angers TT. It is a very strong team with high-level table tennis players. All our players had very serious preparation for the upcoming matches.
