Akaa-Volley visited Kokkolan Tiikerit on Sunday evening. The result was something our coach Olli Kunnari could be satisfied. All three points were travelling to Akaa in the same bus with the team. Akaa-Volley won by 1 - 3 (25-22, 23-25, 21-25, 9-25).
Our serve was all too soft in the beginning. That gave Tiikerit more efficient attack. In the last two sets we were more agressive and that is why we managed to take the win, analyzed Kunnari after the match.
This time, all Akaa-Volley players managed to keep their performance on excellent level. The +/- statistics shows 75/+52 for the team. Jaylen Jasper made 22/+17, Sebastian Pozo Hernandez had 13/+5, Aaro Paananen 12/+12, Niklas Seppänen 12/+5, Ilja Ivanov (the setter) 8/+6 and Antti Taponen 7/+6.
The match was a nice 'dress rehearsal' for the coming Challenge Cup fight against Panvita Pomgrad from Slovenia (or like their turism office wants to write: sLOVEnia). This fight will take its place now in Wednesday (the 13th Nov) evening at 6.30 pm here in Akaa. We are waiting for excellent volleyball and a hectic atmosphere in Akaa Areena with at least 800 spectators!
Akaa-Volley is ready for its next euromatch!
