Overview

It’s the second day of group D in Cluj-Napoca. The first match of the day brings together two countries from the north of Europe in what we expect to be quite an unpredictable game. Sweden is ending 38 years of absence from the European Championships while Finland ticks its fourth appearance in EuroVolley. This clash might reveal the dark horse of the group, it will be very interesting to watch it unfold.

Match Report

Sweden defeats Finland in a thrilling five-set match

Article 19 August 2021

A five set thriller opens day 2 in Cluj-Napoca as Sweden come back in extraordinary fashion to overturn an early Finland lead. After two straight sets won by FInland in quite easy fashion, Sweden rallied around an impressive Isabelle Haak (42 points) and won the game in the decisive set.The standing of the teams before the match have really shown during action that they are really close in terms of teamplay and individual potential. For Sweden, the best player was Isabelle Haak, and for Finland it was Anna Czakan. The two teams had really nothing between them to be separated, but the Swedish attack was just a little bit better in the end.

“It was a really tough and long game for us. Early in the game the system did not work as we wanted but we went into a good rhythm and fought until the end. We found the confidence and turned it over.”

Isabelle Haak
Sweden's Opposite

“We started well but then we were not able to hold on the same line of attack. It was difficult in the defence too, but we will go forward and tomorrow is another day.”
