26. 02. 2022 – 23:25
After the defeats on the board of the third Ostrava and the first Liberec, the volleyball players of Palacký University Olomouc introduced themselves to the domestic audience. In the 25th extra-league round, the university students from Brno hosted the Šelma and only after two even first sets did they manage to confirm the role of the paper favorite. The VK UP team won 3: 1 in the table and got to the third place by a point ahead of Ostrava.
After a balanced initial exchange, the guests were the first to dare and developed a three-point tip (7:10). However, the Olomouc women first went to the blockbuster (16:12) when serving Herdová mass (11:10) and then also thanks to the services of Brazilian Silva. The point shootout continued: first served by Mikysková from Brno (16:18), then by Šepeĺová (22:18), and only this moment proved to be the main one. The beasts have already finished leveling and setting the win of Palacký University 25:21.
The second act also started with better visiting volleyball players, but for a long time it could not disengage from the home team, which kept a close distance of a maximum of three points. However, at 2:15 p.m., the Brno-based Širůčková came to serve, and all of a sudden it was 2:21 p.m. In the end, Blancová drew a spark of domestic hope (15:23, 19:23), but unfortunately it was too late. After the result of 20:25 it was settled.
Moreover, even at the beginning of the third part, the Beasts were a better team and the university only caught up for a long time (1: 3, 5: 8). Blancová ordered the turn again (8:11, 12:11) and the Olomouc strike came during the Mosčická service (17:16, 21:16). The home players did not let the final take over and thanks to the 25:20 win next to 2: 1.
Only the fourth set brought an onslaught of college girls from the beginning (9: 6, 13: 8), but the guests were able to react (13:12). Only two domestic bodies from 18:16 to 20:16 brought the necessary peace to the Olomouc ranks and the conclusion was already directed by Palacký University – 25:19 and 3: 1.
“As before, we only managed to play evenly for about two and a half hundred, then we got tired again. The opponent had better service for most of the match. In the fourth set, it was already on our side and the hardship in the field, we had a problem defending Olomouc and other mistakes stemmed from that, “said Brno coach Ondřej Boula.
“Of the three matches with the Beasts in this, it was the most balanced today. We could not start, we lacked energy and the will to win. The girls may have thought it would win on their own, even though we drew attention to this, noting that the Beasts have been playing in very good shape lately. The double shift helped us, Veronika Tinklová caught up well and started it. But throughout the match, we had a desperate block, which was supposed to have heavy girls in the field. If we want to think at least minimally in the upcoming playoffs, we can’t play like this, “home coach Martin Hroch was not satisfied at all, despite the three-point win.
On Thursday, March 3, the Olomouc team will welcome the Prostějov team in the overture of the 26th league round. The game will start in the university sports hall in Lazce at 6 pm.
