The greatest hit of the Turkish male volleyball, probably of the volleyball in Europe in general, is Spor Toto. The team from Ankara took over the right to compete in the 2019/20 AXA Sigorta Efeler Ligi regular season from Maliye Piyango and thus, they are making their debut in the country’s top division. And what a debut it is for now!
Spor Toto downed nine-time champions Halkbank at home by a 3-1 (13-25, 25-23, 30-28, 28-26) to come in first in the charts with 5-0 and 15 points. They are one of the three undefeated teams in the competition. On the other hand, Halkbank are closer to fighting for Efeler Ligi survival than fighting for a playoff spot (1-4).
Ugandan Daudi Okello had one more mighty performance (28 points) for Spor Toto. He is currently the top scorer of the league when it comes to the points per set (6.24) and third-best scorer overall (106 points). Metin Toy and Moldovan Dmitrii Bahov scored 19 points apiece for Halbank. Faik Samet Güneş made 5 kill blocks.
