Sovereign Olympicpress it Zaksa and sees qualification! The “red and white” with an excellent appearance prevailed with 3-0 set of the European champion, they reached 6 points after 5 matches and are now well on their way to qualifying for the next phase of the Men’s Champions League.
The first set went point-by-point at its start, with Olympiacos going on a 5-0 run to turn 8-9 into 14-9. Somewhere there, the Piraeus put things in the right order and hitting from their serve, having 6 aces (4 of them by Hidalgo), they managed to make it 1-0 and even with typical comfort (25-18).
The start of the second set was similar to that of the first set, with Olympiakos and Zaksa tied at 12-11. Consecutive mistakes by the visitors and points by Hidalgo and Djuric brought the score to 19-12 with an amazing 7-1 run, with the “red and white” emphatically taking the second set as well (25-19).
The third set was different from the other two. Although his start was carbon and fully competitive, Olympiacos had a plurality in attack and never allowed Zaksa to get ahead. Stern and Hidalgo came forward, Dzurich and Koumendakis as well, with the latter completing the match for 25-22 and 3-0 in the sets in favor of Piraeus.
