Two of four teams booked their semifinal tickets for the third-ranked Women’s club volleyball tournament under the European Volleyball Confederation, CEV Challenge Cup.

Yenisey vs. Ostrava

Yenisey vs. Ostrava

As expectet, favorites Yenisey Krasnoyarsk and Bursa Büyükşehir Belediyespor Kulübü advanced to the semifinals, both achieving straight-set wins in the 2nd leg of the quarter-finals.

Russian side Yenisey downed visiting team of T.J. Ostrava from the Czech Republic 3-0, despite the fact all three sets were balanced, 25-23, 25-20, 26-24. As Ostrava published on their website, a journey of their delegation to the 6,000 kilometers distant Siberian city of Krasnoyarsk, lasted nearly 24 hours. This might be one of the reasons why they could not take at least one set in the rematch like they did in the 1st leg. Mariya Frolova from Yenisey scored game-high 17 points. Magdaléna Zedníková had 12 for Ostrava. In the semifinals, Yenisey will play either Olympiacos Piraeus (Greece) or Asterix Avo Beveren (Belgium).

Bursa B.B.S.K. from Turkey surpassed Spanish powerhouse NaturHouse Ciudad de Logroño at home, partially 25-18, 25-12, 25-18, after claiming 3-1 victory in the first match. Hungarian Dóra Horváth from the winning side was the only double-digit player in the match, scoring 10 points. Bursa will face better from SSC Palmberg Schwerin (Germany) – Viteos Neuchatel Université (Switzerland) duel in the semis.
