Jastrzębski Węgiel delivered a commanding performance to secure their place in the Final Four of the Volleyball Champions League, sweeping Olympiacos Piraeus 3-0 (25:21, 25:21, 25:19) in the quarterfinals.
After a narrow 2-3 loss in the first leg, the Polish champions bounced back in style, dominating in front of their home crowd and avoiding the need for a golden set. Anton Brehme, the match’s MVP, played a crucial role in the team’s success (9pts, 80% attack. 1 block).
With this victory, an all-Polish semifinal is now set, as JSW Jastrzębski Węgiel will face Aluron CMC Warta Zawiercie—who eliminated SVG Lüneburg—for a spot in the final.
Łukasz Kaczmarek led the scoring with 15 points, three blocks, and an ace, boasting a 52% attack efficiency. Timothée Carle and Tomasz Fornal each contributed 13 points, helping seal the dominant win. Aleksandar Atanasijević was Olympiacos’ top scorer with 12 points.
