Mladost secured a spot in the MEVZA League final after a hard-fought 3-1 (23:25, 25:21, 25:23, 25:24) victory over Dinamo. Despite early setbacks, Mladost turned the match around with strong performances in the third and fourth sets.
Head coach Darko Nojić praised his team’s resilience but acknowledged the need for improvement. On the other hand, Dinamo’s coach Igor Šimunčić expressed frustration over missed opportunities and tactical errors, citing the absence of starting setter Jelena Ninčević.
Mladost will now face Slovenia’s Calcit Kamnik, who triumphed over Maribor Branik 3-1 (25:18, 27:29, 25:15, 25:22). Kamnik controlled most of the game, with Maribor’s squad struggling despite the efort of Iza Mlakar.
