VIII round. The fourth game. February 3
"Alanta" — VC "Dobrodiy-Meduniversitet-ShVSM" 3-0 (25:15, 25:16, 25:11)
"Alanta" prevailed over "Dobrodiy" and improved their chances of reaching the semifinals of the Super League-Dmart. It should be noted that the first two teams are directly qualified there based on the results of the regular season.
The beginning of the match was marked by so-called "swings" (2:5, 9:8). However, with each new rally, the initiative gradually began to shift to the side of Gariy Yeghiazarov's wards. The latter managed to minimize the number of their errors in the attack. That's why Yuliia Kaminska, who was the most active member of "Alanta" in those minutes, put an end to the first set with a productive attack - 25:15.
In the next set, the "Dobrodiy" quite successfully imposed their game on the opponents for some time (7:7). Then Lidiia Luchko's serve knocked those out of the reception, due to which the Dnipro players organized a solid rush (11:7). Yuliia Yakusheva reacted to this with a timeout. But the first, and later the second time-outs did not change the course of events on the floor - 25:16.
After two previous successful sets, the volleyball players of "Alanta" did not lose momentum. In addition, fortune was also on their side: Marta Fedyk's successful ace after bouncing off the top rope (9:6). The score on the scoreboard allowed Gariy Yegiazarov to make a rotation: Kateryna Dzendzelovska, Kseniia Puhach and Bohdana Hrytsyk even more enlivened the game of the Dnipro club, which in this set gave its opponents only 11 points.
