EuroVolley Women – All you need to know ahead of the medal matches
CEV EuroVolley 2019 Women

Luxembourg, September 7, 2019. The history-making CEV EuroVolley 2019 Women will be reaching its climax on Sunday, with Serbia and Turkey playing for gold and Italy locking horns with Poland with a bronze medal at stake. These matches are a repeat of the fixtures that these teams contested in the pool stage of the tournament. Serbia beat Turkey 3-1 in the last match of Pool A, while Poland edged Italy 3-2 in Pool B in Lodz – with Italy already sure of finishing first in the pool after taking two sets. There is much to look forward as the ultimate Volleyball party held across as many as four countries ends in emphatic style with yet another full house of some 12,000 people expected at the iconic Ankara Sports Hall!
