This is the perfect opening of the tournament of Zoran Terzic’s side. After beating the Czech Republic in straight sets in the first game, Serbia have recorded another three-set victory.
The Netherlands couldn’t do anything to stop the Serbian girls 3-0 (29-27, 25-17, 25-23). It seems that the first set determined the course of the game. After a super exciting volleyball, Serbia somehow prevailed and took the lead 29-27. In another two sets, the Dutch girls gave some resistance but it was not enough to extend the game.
Tijana Boskovic had a stunning display, scoring 27 points. On the other side, Lonneke Sloetjes finished the game with 12.
