Chernivtsi Arena "PVLU". March 29, 2023
"Dobrodiy-Meduniversitet-ShVSM" — SC "Prometey" 1-3 (16:25, 25:20, 12:25, 12:25)
The players of "Prometey" repeated their previous success against the Vinnytsia players in the championship of Ukraine. However, the weight of this victory in the final series is much higher than the one that took place in the regular season. And, looking ahead, we note that today's triumph was a little more difficult for them.
From the start, both teams took turns exchanging points — 4:4. There was a certain tension on the court, which made the team feel a little uneasy. Therefore, they tried not to take any risks. Next, Anna Artyshuk, who started from the first minutes in place of Viktoria Danchak, who was injured the day before, increased the advantage of the "red and whites" to three points - 7:10. By the way, the opposite became the MVP of the confrontation.
However, the Dobrody club did not want to let their opponents go far, and with joint efforts they equalized the parity. Subsequently, a similar picture was repeated again. At the end of the set, Ivan Petkov's players increased their actions on the block and eventually organized a decisive breakthrough. And the aforementioned Artyshuk was the one to put the full stop with a block-out - 16:25.
"Dobrodiy" started the second part of the meeting more confidently - 6:2. Their rivals were desperately trying to close the gap. When it seemed that the players from Kamianske were about to win back, their own mistakes hindered them at crucial moments. There were so many of them that Yuliia Yakusheva's team led with a difference of six points - 15:9.
Petkov decided to substitute: Mariia Kaplanska appeared on the floor instead of Yevheniia Hober. The rotation went in favor of "Prometey", which in the end came close to the target - 17:16, 21:20. But in this set, fortune was on the side of the club from Vinnytsia: first, Valerii Yakusheva scored a curious ball on the reception, and then Anastasiia Kucher impressed with a serve - 25:20.
The head coach of the "red and whites" must have had an effective conversation with his players during the long break between the sets, because they added speed and in the next one - they did not leave Vinnytsia any chance - 12:25. The neutral fans were hoping for some intrigue in the fourth set, but the team from Kamianske did not even think of slowing down — 12:25.
