In the placement rounds Ukraine clearly defeated Serbia by winning in two sets.
Both sets were clearly dominated by the team of coach Maia Karbunar who were too superior in this match against a very tired Serbian team. Serbia especially phased massive problems in the second period, where they needed a long time to score.
Ukraine´s aim is to go for winning the placement round, whilst Serbia will try to win as many games as possible to have the best possible final ranking at the tournament in Umag, Croatia.
Olena Sulyma, player of Ukraine: “It was an easy game for us, as Serbia are playing a lower level. We´re disappointed as we should have played the Main Round with our qualities.”
