So far, VakıfBank are having an amazing volleyball season, both in Turkey and on an international level.
After the Turkish Super Cup and the FIVB Club World Championship, VakıfBank also took home the Turkish Cup (2021/22 Kadınlar AXA Sigorta Kupa Voley), and can now focus on winning the national league and the CEV Champions League.
In a great atmosphere at the Başkent Volleyball Hall in Ankara (6,000 spectators), Giovanni Guidetti’s team prevailed over Fenerbahçe Opet in a very close final match that lasted 5 sets, partially 21-25, 25-21, 25-13, 27-29, and 17-15 to clinch the 8th overall title in the competition, the 2nd in a row. The ladies commanded by Zoran Terzić canceled a match point at 23-24 in the 4th set, then 3 more in the tie-break, but in the end, they succumbed to the yellow-and-blacks.
The Swede from VakıfBank, Isabelle Haak, showed a dreamlike performance, finishing the match with 44 points (!), including 5 aces, on her account, obviously taking the MVP award.
