    Overview

    The first match of the day in Cluj-Napoca put team Ukraine against team Sweden. Team Sweden will be looking to seal the third place of the group with a victory today, as they already have 2 victories in the previous three matches. Ukraine has lost against the two group favourites TUR and NED, but after a superb win against Finland, they will be looking to cause an upset here. The key figures of today’s game will be the Haak sisters for Sweden, but Olesia Rykhliuk of Ukraine has put on some incredible performances so far. This will definitely be a cat-and-mouse game, extremely interesting to watch.

    Match Report

    Team Ukraine wins against Sweden in a crucial match for Pool D

    Article

    The first match of the day started in high spirits in Cluj-Napoca. Team Ukraine faces team Sweden in the BT Arena in a highly important match in the economy of Pool D. With a victory here, Sweden would have been sure of third place in the group. However, Ukraine had entirely something else in mind for this game and started really strong in attack, led by the incredible Olesia Rykhliuk, who is their best player so far in EuroVolley 2021. After a first cat-and-mouse set, with several changes on the leaderboard, Ukraine finally sealed it 25-23.The second set has started in the same fashion, with a very balanced early game. Isabelle Haak and Olesia Rykhliuk have been dominant for their teams, launching devastating attacks from opposite sides of the field. Ukraine forced their opponent to make many errors, which cost them the second set of the game.The third set had no story to tell again. Despite another Isabelle Haak masterclass, this time, her teammates have let her down. Team Ukraine has been dominant on the serve and in defence, counting on Olesia Rykhliuk to finish off their attacks. It’s been a disappointing day for Sweden and a very good performance for team Ukraine, who can dream of going further in the competition.

    After the match, Isabelle Haak told us that: "We couldn’t find our way today, we were really frustrated on the court, stressed. We need to do whatever we can in the game against the Netherlands. It will be a really difficult game."

    A very happy Iryna Trushkina said: "We have to be focused until the last point, it doesn't matter who we play against. We need to shoot for the top of the table."
