They lost to Romania and Greece is in for a treat

Greece was defeated 3-1 set from the Romania and, now, he sees from afar the chances of qualifying for the next phase of the European championship. The “blue and white” did not… appear in the first two sets, with the Romanians taking full advantage of it and taking an important step towards the qualification, counting two wins and two losses.

Greece, on the other hand, have suffered their third defeat in four games and need a clear victory over leaders and undefeated (but indifferent) France and a combination of results to continue in the competition.

Unfortunately for the National Team, Alexandros Raptis he left the game injured, appearing to have lower back pain.

In the first set, Romania was in total control and quickly managed to take the lead. With a run of five points he escaped to 13-8 and with shorter runs he reached +11 (23-12), making the 1-0 set 25-16.

The picture was similar in the second set, with Greece not finding answers and hunting throughout, resulting in a 2-0 set at 25-18.

The third set was more balanced. Romania held the lead until 8-7, but the Greek team took the lead 10-8 and maintained a difference of one or two points until 20-18. The Romanians leveled at 20-20 and 21-21, with the battle continuing to the end, for the 2-1 set at 25-23.

And the fourth set was balanced, with Romania unable to get more than 1-2 points in the longest period. At a critical point, Romania escaped to +3 (21-18), while a mistake by the referee brought the curtain down on the game.
