  • Volleyball
DEF

Dernière manche d'un match, laquelle désignera l'équipe gagnante.

CONT

Le match est gagné par l'équipe qui remporte trois sets. En cas d'égalité de sets 2-2, le set décisif (5e set) est joué avec le système de la marque continue (pour accélérer le jeu, une équipe peut marquer un point même si elle n'est pas au service, c'est le tie-break).

OBS

partie décisive : Certains ouvrages utilisent «partie» comme synonyme de «manche» ou «set». Cependant, le terme «partie» est aussi utilisé comme synonyme de «match» pour désigner l'ensemble des manches. Le terme «partie décisive» peut donc porter à confusion et devrait être évité.
