Galatasaray through to #CEVCupW 8th Finals
CEV Volleyball Cup 2021 - Women
Istanbul, Turkey, November 27, 2020. Galatasaray HDI ISTANBUL secured a second victory in as many matches with Khimik YUZHNY of Ukraine to claim a spot in the 8th Finals of the women’s CEV Volleyball Cup 2021. On Thursday, the hosts stormed to a 3-1 (25-21, 22-25, 25-20, 27-25) home victory to go with their 3-0 triumph from their previous matchup in Ukraine.
Galatasaray HDI started the match with confidence, taking the first set 25-21, but Khimik responded swiftly to level the match. However, by winning the third set, Galatasaray made sure they would be the ones progressing to the next round of the competition. The fourth set was just a formality, and yet the hosts made it 27-25 in their favour to celebrate a 3-1 victory.
Galatasaray will be hosting in early December the next round of the competition in a ‘bubble format’, where they will be playing SC POTSDAM of Germany in a one-off 8th Final match followed by a quarterfinal fixture against DRESDNER SC (GER) or Nova KBM Branik MARIBOR of Slovenia.
