Most of the teams in this traditional competition for national teams included several GMs and IMs in their rosters. The German Chess Federation, on the other hand, presented a lineup of mostly young players who did not have an easy time against such competition. In the open, however, the results were not bad at all in view of these conditions.
Topping the standings in both competitions were the French squads. In the open they eon all their matches, except for one, as they lost to Slovakia. In the women’s event, they finished undefeated but drew no fewer than five matches.
Slovakia and Hungary got second and third places respectively, in both competitions.
