Grupa Azoty KĘDZIERZYN-KOŹLE v TRENTINO Itas

Article

The long-awaited match for all CEV Champions League Volley fans has arrived! On one side is the winner of the last two editions, Grupa Azoty KĘDZIERZYN-KOŹLE, and on the other side is the team that is used to making it to the semifinals, TRENTINO Itas. And the winner is – KOZLE, with spectacular 3-2 on the board (25-22, 22-25, 22-25, 25-21, 15-10).

The first started off as a point-by-point type of play but KOZLE managed to separate (8-5) and they’ve held this advantage and even increased it to +5 points (12-7). They had six points of advantage at one point (21-15) but up until the very end of the match it decreased and the set finished by 25-22.

Since they’ve won the first set, KOZLE walked into the second set full of motive. And of course, because there is a lot at stake. They transferred their flightiness and already had a 9-4 lead in the beginning. But this is volleyball and it wouldn’t be interesting without a twist. TRENTINO was slowly building their way up and they managed to equalize the set (16-16) and get in the lead (18-21) and then win the whole set by 22-25.

The third set was even better. The score was 4-4 and the initiative was taken by KOZLE. However, TRENTINO is a great team and it led to a 10:10 draw. And the "volleyball battle" began. KOZLE was leading to 18-17. Kaziyski's great serve gave TRENTINO the lead of 19-18. The key to winning the set by the Italians was Sbertoli's service ace at 23-21. The Set was finished with an ace from Czech receiver of Itas Donovan Dzavoronok. And again on the scoreboard 25-22.

In the fourth set, both teams risked serving. TRENTINO started better, leading 6-2 after Micheletto's ace. This time KOZLE led to a 9-9 draw. The action of the set took place at 12-11 for the Italians. First, KOZLE counterattacked three times, then the Italian team, and finally the action was completed by the captain of KOZLE Aleksander Śliwka. For a long time, the hosts maintained a three-point advantage (17-14, 20-17) but the end of the set was amazing. Micheletto's service ace and Bednorz's mistake lead to a tie at 21-21. It was Bednorz who was the main actor at the end of the set. First, the attack and then two service aces gave the lead 24-21 and the spoilt attack of the guests gave KOZLE a 25-21 win and tiebreak.

The last set was full of technical errors from the TRENTINO. Touching the net and crossing the three-meter line while attacking from the second line gave the European club champions a 4-0 lead. Although TRENTINO reduced the losses to 8-10, KOZLE finished phenomenally and won a tiebreak 15-10 and the whole match by 3-2.
