Greece qualified for #EurovolleyM

English ,

Greece needed to record a win in today’s match against Azerbaijan in order to qualify for the 2019 CEV European Championship.

Azerbaijan started the match furiously and made sure that a repeat of last Wednesday’s 3-0 defeat would not happen, they took the first two sets by storm, creating the needed difference at the end of the sets: 25-20, 25-22.

Greece hadn’t lost a single set before this match, they were now facing 0-2. Bringing some new blood on court helped the Greeks to a 22-25 set win in the third set. 

With Azerbaijan’s spirit broken the last two remaining sets were easier for the Pool G frontrunners. The match was theirs after 18-25 and 5-15, granting Greece access to next year’s EuroVolleyM.

Nikos Zoupani (GRE) was the match’ top scorer with 21 points, including two block points.
