Belogorie Belgorod - Trentino Volley (full match)

Russia’s giant Belogorie Belogrod is only one step away from qualifying to the Final Four Tournament of the Champions League 2013/14. After dominating the scene in the Final Six of the Russian Cup last week, the “Lions” - as they are dubbed in Russia – prolonged their terrific winning streak also in the Playoffs 1/6 where they easily routed Italy’s champions and Champions League three-time winners Trentino Volley in three sets (25:20, 25:20, and 25:18). Georg Grozer was best scorer of game. He scored 15 points, including three aces, while Muserskiy added another 13 points to the count of Belogorie. David Szabo was the leading scorer for Trentino Volley with 12 points.
Trentino had travelled to Russia without their Bulgarian-born opposite Tsvetan Sokolov who had suffered an injury last Sunday during a match of the national league that Trento lost 0:3 to their archrivals of Lube Banca Marche Macerata. This way the team around head coach Roberto Serniotti did really not stand a chance to stop the Russian machine and Belogorie needs now to take another two sets next week in Italy to book their spot in the Final Four Tournament scheduled for March 22-23 in Ankara, Turkey.
