From the very first minutes of the match, the Zhytomyr club "Zhytychi-Polissia" decided to organize an advantage until the opponent played out (3:1 - 7:4). Several times "Reshetylivka" equalized the score (12:12), but they lacked the skill to keep it (12:15). Zhytomyr looked better in attack and in the general picture of the game - 25:19.

The next set also took place according to the "Zhytychiv" scenario: Alen Didovic, Mykytia Luban, and Viktor Shapoval effectively, and most importantly, successfully completed almost all their attacks (10:6 - 20:15). And this time the wards of Serhii Tereykovsky allowed the opponents to score only 18 points - 25:18.

A 10-minute break did not change the situation on the PVLU arena court: the Zhytomyr team continued to feel quite comfortable and controlled the course of the match (8:6 - 20:15). "Reshetylivka" from time to time tried to "show its teeth" and give a fight, but its own mistakes and experienced opponent's attackers stood in the way - 25:17 and 3-0 in favor of "Zhytychi-Polissia".

Viktor Shapoval received the MVP award.
