SC "Balta" — "Regina-MEGU-OSHVSM" 3-0 (25:18, 25:17, 25:21)
The wards of Andrii Romanovych won over the players of "Regina" and finished the regular stage of the championship of Ukraine on a high note.
Both teams were involved in this match for a long time, as evidenced by the considerable number of mistakes at the start, in particular, in the service. Even before the middle of the set, the Balta team organized a rush (4:0), which forced Antonina Zhuk to take a timeout (8:4).
Almost immediately after the break, thanks to the efforts of Andriana Pavlyk, "Regina" managed to perform a reception. This gave confidence to her teammates, because soon the Rivne team reduced the gap to two points (9:7). Representatives of Odesa quickly regained their 4-point handicap, and in the end even developed their own success - 25:18.
In the next set, it was noticeable that the volleyball players from Rivne significantly improved their game on the block, earning a lot of points with this element. Then Anastasiia Horbachenko knocked out the opponents from reception with her serve and helped "Balta" lead the score (13:7). This moment became a turning point, because by the end of the set, Antonina Zhuk's team could not come to their senses - 25:17.
Unfortunately, Horbachenko was injured, which made her unable to continue the match. Therefore, Anastasiia Malysheva assisted the Baltia team in the third set.

As a result, this set became the final one in the meeting - 25:21.
