The fragmented Round 26 of 2023/24 Plusliga or, if you prefer, Round 11 of second leg, continued today with other 2 games.
Another defeat for Grupa Azoty ZAKSA Kędzierzyn-Koźle, who suffered a home defeat over Trefl Gdańsk, who won the game with the score of 1-3 (25:16, 20:25, 21:25, 17:25).
Despite a strong start by the home team, winning the first set impressively, the rivals turned the tables starting from the second set, where they rallied from behind to take control and eventually win the match. This victory propels Gdańsk into the fifth spot in the league, complicating ZAKSA’s path to the playoffs.
Top scorers of the match were Bartosz Bednorz with 18 points and Łukasz Kaczmarek with 14 points for ZAKSA while, among the winners, Kewin Sasak led his team with 16 points, closely followed by Jan Martinez with 15. Setter Lukas Kampa was named MVP of the game.
In the evening, Aluron CMC Warta Zawiercie struggled more than expected to beat now No.12 Ślepsk Malow Suwałki and, after a 0-2 in favor of the rivals, staged an amazing comeback and won the game at tie break, 3-2 (24:26, 24:26, 25:22, 25:20, 15:10).
Taking advantage from the defeat of Projekt Warszawa in big match with Jastrzębski Węgiel, the winners regained second position in the current charts, at -6 from the leaders Jastrzębski.
Karol Butryn was named MVP of the match with 26 points to his name through 49% in attack and as many as 7 of his team’s 9 aces, while Bartosz Filipiak was the most prolific player on the losing side with 22 points.
Round 26 will continue on Monday with the clash between Indykpol AZS Olsztyn and KGHM Cuprum Lubin, while on Tuesday Exact Systems Hemarpol Częstochowa will welcome Barkom Każany Lwów in the last game of the round.
