Our representative group easily defeated Norway 3-0, taking another step towards the finals in the crowded Mikras Gymnasium in Thessaloniki.

There wasn’t much of a difference in the second set at first, going from 10-5 to 17-5 with Hadava on serve, but there was a lot of doldrums from one point on as Norway cut to 20-15 to follow with a lone result 5 -1 for the final 25-16.

In the third set the start reminded us of the first as we took an 8-0 lead with Norway catching up a bit (10-5) but we got away very quickly 20-10 and the final 25-11 came in apotheosis .
