Small chance of eighth round remains: Swiss volleyball players have no chance against EM favorite Italy

class=”sc-29f61514-0 icZBHN”>

The Swiss volleyball players only occasionally revolt against Favorite Italy. Qualification for the eighth finals remains theoretically possible, even after the fourth defeat.

As expected, Italy was not within reach of the Swiss volleyball players at the European Championship final. However, they did well in the 3-0 defeat in Ancona against the world and European champions.

In the end, the Italians lived up to their reputation as number 1 in Europe with ease, even against the blatant outsider. In terms of result, the Swiss lasted surprisingly long and even managed to make the opponent nervous, especially in the second round, when they suddenly closed the gap to 23:24 after defending two set balls. However, they could never seriously hope to win a set, especially as the Italians eventually led by example with a 25:15.

Small chance of round of 16 remains

Nevertheless, in Sunday’s somewhat unfortunate 3-2 defeat to Estonia, the Swiss showed they can hold their own, at least against the continent’s second-tier side. If Belgium wins 3:2 against the Balten on Tuesday and does not score against the team of national coach Mario Motta on Wednesday, the Swiss would even qualify for the eighth finals. The chances for this constellation are slim – but not impossible. (SDA)
