Four victories and one minimal defeat with Russia after the tie-break – this was the result of the victory for the Dutch national team in group C of the European volleyball championship. On Tuesday in Tampere, the Dutch played their last match of the group stage, where they defeated the hosts of the group – the Finns 3-1.

In the first set there was a fierce ending, where at 22:23 the Dutch scored three more points and by winning 25:23 they took the lead. In the second game, in the middle of the set, the hosts achieved an advantage of several points, which they managed to bring to the end and win to 21.

The third set is yet another very fierce ending and one more, which was won by the Dutch national team, which won 27:25. And it is despite that Finns they were already leading 22:16 and 23:20! The phenomenal finish of the Dutch (11: 3) in the third game meant that in the fourth game there was no more emotions. The Netherlands probably won 25:20, the whole game 3: 1 and could enjoy the victory of group C.

Once again, their leader – attacking Italian Trentino Nimir Abdel-Aziz, who scored 34 points on an amazing 67 percent, presented himself with an excellent side in the colors of “Oranje”. effectiveness in attack.

Russia finally promoted! An interesting situation in the group that will choose the rival of the Poles in the 1/8 finals

Who is the rival of the Poles in the knockout stage?

The victory of the national team The Netherlands in group C it practically means that it will bypass the Poles on the way to the semi-finals of the European championship. Only if the Polish national team loses the Wednesday match with Ukraine and takes second place in group A, it will be able to face Abdel-Aziz and the company in a possible quarter-final.

Behind the Dutch backs, however, there is a real reshuffle. The Turks (9 points) and the Russians (8 points) each have three wins, and the Finns have two (6 points). Finland will play Turkey on Wednesday and Russia will play the weakest in Group C North Macedonia, which practically means that the Olympic runners-up will come out of second or third place.

Assuming the Poles will win over Ukraine, they will almost certainly go to Finland (if they do not win against Turkey for three points) or Turkey (if the Finns win for three points). In the quarter-finals, in turn, the potential rival of the team Vitala Heynena there will be a second team from group C, and this decision will also largely depend on the result Finland-Turkey meetings.

The Serbs became the leaders of our group and they gave the Poles no choice. Only victory
