Ukraine claimed the 2025 CEV Golden League title, defeating Hungary 3-1 in a spirited final in Angelholm, Sweden. With Romania securing the bronze, it was a thrilling end to the tournament.
Ukraine looked sharp from the start, controlling the match apart from a dip in the second set. Their attack was well spread, with five players hitting double digits, including Artyshuk (17), Dymar (14), and standout middle blocker Ulyana Kotar, who had a flawless game—10 kills from 16 swings, no errors, 2 blocks, and an ace.
Hungary’s Anett Nemeth tried to keep her team in the game with 29 points, but she had little support.
