Zaksa determined to upset pre-favourite Italians in CEV Cup semis
2015 CEV Volleyball Cup - Men

Kedzierzyn-Kozle, Poland, March 23, 2015. Zaksa KEDZIERZYN-KOZLE are just about to take on a very demanding challenge. After a quite disappointing season in the national league, the men around former international star Sebastian Swiderski are vying for a spot in the finals of the 2015 CEV Volleyball Cup – Men and in order to achieve this feat will first have to claim the first round of the semis with Italy’s Energy T.I. Diatec TRENTINO coming up on Tuesday night at the Azoty hall.

“We want to repeat and improve what our team did back in the 2010-2011 season when Zaksa made the finals of the CEV Cup and eventually lost there at the golden set to Sisley TREVISO,” Swiderski says.

Both teams have been performing strong lately and this stands as a good omen for the upcoming matches which should be close and tight to the delight of their respective home crowds. Michal Ruciak and Pawel Zatorski have recovered from their injuries and are determined to deliver a superb performance on Tuesday night. Dutchman Dick Kooy is also in top form and since he spent many years in the highly competitive Italian national league, he knows very well what to expect from the upcoming match with TRENTINO.

“We realise that theoretically our opponents have better players for almost every single position on the court,” says libero Pawel Zatorski, “but we are not giving up at all.”

“The match with TRENTINO is of great interest and we realise that only by winning at home we can keep alive our hopes of making the final stage of this competition,” coach Swiderski adds. “We will be doing our best to please our supporters and ourselves as well.”
