The second game day of the Super League-Budinvest was opened by "The team of the Poltava region. VC Reshetylivka" and "Security Police-ZUNU-Dynamo". Before today's confrontation, both teams had only 9 points in the championship. Therefore, the winner of the match will take a higher place than the opponent. Two previous matches brought each team a 3-0 victory, but today it was quite possible to expect that the winner would be decided in four or five sets.
However, for the third time in a row in the championship, the opponents played only three sets. At the same time, unexpectedly, "Reshetylivka" won in all aspects. The match started with the fact that the team took 4 rallies at once on the serve of "Reshetylivka" setter Mykola Bovsunovskyi. In the first half of the set, the club from the Poltava region doubled its handicap (12:4). Ternopil did not "enter the game" in the second half either. "Security Police" lost the set in all aspects, winning only 12 rallies.
The second set was tied only in its debut. With the score tied at 4:4, "Reshetylivka" organized a 4:0 run, which largely determined the team's leadership throughout the set. Already its first half was won by Oleksandr Frolov's team with a solid margin (13:6). They continued to confidently control the game, taking the second set in a row.
Nothing has changed in the confrontation even after a long break. "Reshetylivka" established its leadership already in the debut of the third set - 4:1, 6:2, then completely controlled the game and confidently brought the match to victory.
The team from the Poltava region scored 12 points in the championship, and the "Security Police" had 9.
