Day 2 Match Summary : 2 Semifinalists Confirmed – VakifBank Istanbul & Volero Zurich

Kobe, Japan, May 10, 2017 –  Leading teams of Pool A and Pool B VakifBank Istanbul and Volero Zurich succeeded to keep their winning-streak on Day 2 and secured their spots in the FIVB Volleyball Women’s Club World Championship Kobe 2017 semifinals.

We also witnessed two Europeans teams experiencing their first victory in the tournament including the title defending Eczacibasi Vitra and Dinamo Moscow, which defeated their counterparts Osasco Voleibol Clube in 4 sets and Hisamitsu Springs in straights sets respectively.

After the rest day May 11, both winning teams will need to face a more critical match on the following day.  Dinamo Moscow will have their first ever encounter with Rexonna-SESC Rio while Eczacibasi will play against NEC Red Rockets. Simultaneously, Volero Zurich will try to extend their winning streak when they meet Osasco Voleibol Clube, followed by Vakifbank versus Hisamitsu Springs.

We wish every team can make use of the rest day to prepare for the upcoming critical matches. InstaVolley will bring to you more live coverages as well as behind-the-scene features in Kobe. Stay Tuned and don’t forget to share our Facebook Page to all the volleyball fans you know!
