It is a surprise, even a shock for me. Not a single set was won by Vakifbank. Congratulations to Pomi. Another sad campaign by Vakifbank. They have eliminated Eczacibasi, Volero, Fenerbahce, they are all other favorites, they crossed the ocean and drown in the river.

Very well said…This may be reason why it is so exciting to watch the final four….
What a great performance. Congrats Pomi!
