Panathinaikos – Nantes 3:1: Great victory for the Greens, qualification for the round of 16 of the CEV Cup
Panathinaikos put in an excellent performance, defeating French leaders Nantes 3-1 and securing the lead in qualifying for the “16” of the CEV Cup.
Before the game started, the Panathinaikos women’s volleyball team seemed extremely difficult to play against Nantes.
However, Yiannis Kalmazidis and his players won 3:1 sets against the French leaders Nantes and thus secured a qualifying lead for the “16” of the CEV Cup.
In fact, the French won the first set, which was ultimately decided 25-23. But then Panathinaikos dominated and got the next ones with 25-18, 25-19 and 25-17.
Next Tuesday (December 20th) Panathinaikos needs two sets to qualify against an excellent team. Of course, the Shamrock Girls’ task won’t be easy, but with a performance like that of the first match, they can complete the traverse.
