Panathinaikos-Olympiakos: Red and white title jump or green counterattack?

by

Derby “eternal” second act tonight (17:30), in the series of Women’s Volleyball League finalsfour days after their sensational first meeting at “Melina Merkouri”!

There, last Saturday, in an exciting game in its development, Olympiacos celebrated the victory 3-2 sets (25-20, 22-25, 25-9, 21-25, 18-16) with MVP Argentina extreme, Yamila Nizetich (17p), doing so 1-0 and having the opportunity with a break tonight to embrace the title!

On the other hand, Panathinaikos showed its combativeness, managing to fight back against the advances of its opponent, tying at 1-1 and 2-2, but bowing out in the final tie break, when Koumboura, also one of the top winners , made it 18-16 with a nail and an ace.

Now, the “greens” will look for a reaction at home, where they are running a winning streak of 7 in the derby against their great rival, having lost since November 2019. However, Olympiacos has the momentum of the matches, having won and the three most recent “eternal” derbies, including the semi-final in the Cup Final 4 last March.
