The match started with an ace performed by Dmytro Yanchuk, the outside hitter of "Prometey". In the end, the tone and rhythm of the game were set by the Dnipro team - they attacked effectively, served powerfully (10:5), and played well on the block (13:7). Kharkiv's game did not "stick" at all today. 25:16 and 1-0 in favor of the team from Dnipro.
In the second set, the mentor of "Law Academy" had to take a time-out from the first minutes (2:7). The advantage of the champion of the country continued to increase, and two aces by Yanchuk (13:7) contributed well to this. At the end of the set, the Kharkiv club tried to impose a fight (18:21), but they failed to turn the tide of the match. 25:20 and "Prometey" added another set to its asset.
In the third set, a tighter fight broke out (6:6 – 9:9). "Lawyers" really did not want to lose with an "easy" score. They wanted to prove mostly for themselves that they could fight the champion (14:12 - 16:14). However, at the right moment, the "Prometey" team played a little more cunningly (17:16), and then the Kharkiv team made mistakes in the attack (16:18), losing all chances to win this set - 25:20.
The most productive player in the match was the outside hitter from Dnipro - Dmytro Yanchuk (18 points). He received the MVP award.
