It was an uncertain game even though it had ended in three sets. In the first set, Italy barely down the rival to take the lead, while in the second set they had a much easier job to double the lead.
In the third set, after a real drama, Italy have managed to win an extended set and to win the match 3-0!
That means, Poland are returning home empty-handed, while Italy are taking the bronze.
Unlike the semifinal game, Paola Egonu had a great display, finishing as the top scorer of the game with 23 points. On the other side, Malwina Smarzek scored 15 and Magdalena Stysiak 10.
