Live Crvena zvezda – Partizan: The decisive battle! Black and white for the second straight or red and white for the first since 2016? – Volleyball – Sport

Red Star volleyball players won the title of Serbian champions after defeating Partizan 3:0 (25:23, 25:18, 25:18) in the 5th game of the final series.

Ivica Jeftić’s chosen team suffered two defeats after the opening two victories, so the series was decided in a master’s match. The first set saw an even fight, and Tadić and Mrdak kept the black and white in the game. Even though Zvezda had the advantage, Partizan managed to take the lead with 21:20, but continued with mistakes and allowed the rival to win the opening set.

Partizan did a lot better in the second set, they tormented the Zvezda receivers with their serves, but after the 12:11 lead, they completely stopped, which the red and white took advantage of and reached the unattainable 20:13 with a big streak, and routinely brought the set to an end.

The last set of the match was full of twists and turns, but in the end the red and white volleyball players did better. The home team led 2:0 after a service error by Tadić, and after that Žugić served an ace.

Through Petrović and Marinović, the black and whites equalized at 3:3, and the fantastic Milija Mrdak gave Partizan a 5:3 lead. However, Zvezda reached 8:8 with Žugić’s ace and Petrović’s block and completely took control.

Nikolić duly tormented Partizan with his serves, and with his fourth ace, he led Zvezda to an unattainable 17:12.

As a reminder, Red Star won the last volleyball title in the 2015/2016 season. On the other hand, the black and whites failed to defend the league title, since last season they were the best club in Serbia.

PRE MEČA

Crveno-beli su posle uvodne dve pobede dozvolili crno-belima da se sa dve pobede vrate u seriju, te će ovaj duel biti od velike važnosti i najbitniji u celoj seriji.

Poslednji put su se večiti rivali našli u velikom finalu Superlige Srbije davne 2015. godine, a Zvezda je tada slavila u seriji rezultatom 3:1

U poslednjem meču ova dva rivala crno-beli su slavili sa 3:2.

Podsećanja radi, Partizan je prolaz u finale izborio pobedom protiv Radničkog iz Kragujevca, pošto je prvo slavio u gostima sa 2:3, potom izgubio na isti način kod kuće, da bi u završnom činu bio ubedljiv sa 0:3 u Kragujevcu, čime je zakazao veliko finale.

Sa druge strane, Crvena zvezda je posle dva meča eliminisala ekipu Karađorđa iz Topole.
