Highlights
Czech Republic enter the match inspired after the sweet revenge they got on Thursday from Spain, winning on them at 3-1, and making them "pay" for the bronze medal loss at the Golden #EuroLeagueW back in June. Michaela Mlejnkova finished as top scorer with 22 points to her.
"We are happy with the victory, but we want to keep on improving!" Mlejnkova said after the victory.
Germany on the other hand, lost in a hard-fought match against Poland in their opener of their 2021 #EuroVolleyW. However, the Germans will be inspired to record first victory, and as middle blocker Camilla Weitzel said on Thursday, they hope to show what they are capable of in their next matches.
