Poland: ZAKSA down Częstochowa in second game of Round 17

After the advance played yesterday, in which PGE GiEK Skra Bełchatów won on the field of Cuprum Stilon Gorzów, Round 17 of 2024/25 Plusliga or, if you prefer, Round 2 of second leg, continued today with the clash between Steam Hemarpol Norwid Częstochowa and ZAKSA Kędzierzyn-Koźle, ended after a hard-fought 0-3 (22:25, 23:25, 26:28) in favor of the visiting side.
In a hard-fought game, the winners made the difference in attack and in decisive moments, with 4 players who left the court in double digit: ZAKSA’s top scorer Igor Grobelny with 13 points through 65% in attack, 1 block and 1 ace, Rafał Szymura and Bartosz Kurek, who added 12 each, and MVP Karol Urbanowicz, with 10 points through 83% in attack, 1 block and 4 aces.
Patrick Indra and Miland Ebadipour scored 18 and 17 points respectively for the hosts, but they weren’t enough.
Round 17 will continue tomorrow with other three games: Asseco Resovia Rzeszów will welcome leaders Jastrzębski Węgiel, Indykpol AZS Olsztyn will face Ślepsk Malow Suwałki while, in the evening, Barkom Każany Lwów will welcome Aluron CMC Warta Zawiercie.
