IRN M: Sarmayeh beat champions, Żygadło & Co. take first place in standings

Sarmayeh

Paykan were trying to win and keep the top place in the ranking table, while Sarmayeh were trying to beat the powerful opponents for getting the first place. Therefore, prior to the match, it was clear that it will be a tough one for both sides.

Players of Sarmayeh led by brilliant Polish setter Łukasz Żygadło were the ones to achieve their goal as they beat leaders 3-1 (25-20, 22-25,25-21-25-18) and dethroned them, at least until the next round. It was a very controversial game, with both teams complaining to the refereeing, and had many margins.

With presence of 4,000 spectators in “Alghadir” hall, the hosts Shahrdari Urmia VC beat Mizan Khorasan VC 3-0 (25-18, 25-19, 25-23) and ended losing streak of two games. Mehdi Bazargard topped scorers of Urmia with 17 points. Amin Alavi was the best scorer in Khorasan with 18.

It was pity that there were no eye witnesses of a great match in Ghonbad city, where home team of Bazargani Javaheri Gonbad VC defeated strong Saipa Alborz VC 3-2 (20-25, 25-20, 25-20, 18-25, 15-11). It was due to the fact that Ghonbad were obliged to play in an empty hall by decision of the Disciplinary committee of Iran’s Volleyball Federation.
