Olympiakos – Finikas 2-3: The attack of the Syrians gave Rentis the solution and the double

The big derby between Olympiacos and Finikas Syros, a month after the Super Cup in Rhodes, found the second winner for the 10th game of Volley League.

Finikas prevailed with 3:2 sets, managed to get up at Olympiacos headquarters and scored his second straight win over the Red-Whites after going 3-0 in December where he won the Supercup.

Olympiakos climbed to 24 points and is level with champions Panathinaikos, who have a game down, while Finikas climbed to 18 points to stay close to the top three.

The game had many changes in scores and despite Olympiakos leading 14-13 and 16-15, Finikas withstood the pressure and won with two attacks from Michalovic and Juric (he finished the game against his old team) with 20- 18 at the tie break. Olympiacos lagged behind offensively but were better in reception and block defence.

The sets: 2-3 (17-25, 25-23, 23-25, 25-18, 18-20) at 126΄.
