Volleyball - VC Wiesbaden wins first leg of round of 16 in Istanbul
The volleyball players of VC Wiesbaden have created a good starting position ahead of the second leg of the round of 16 in the CEV Challenge Cup. The Hessians won the first leg at Turkish representative Galatasaray Istanbul 3:2 (25:22, 25:16, 25:27, 21:25, 15:13) on Thursday evening. The decisive match for a place in the quarter-finals will take place in Wiesbaden on December 6.
Wiesbaden missed out on a clear success after a strong start. The visitors played with concentration in the first two rounds and deservedly took a 2:0 lead in sets. The signs were also pointing to an outright victory in the third set. However, after leading 23:19, not much was achieved. They also missed a match point at 24:23. That took its revenge. The Turkish side then got into the match better and better, taking the fourth set and forcing the VCW into a tie-break. The Bundesliga volleyball team showed strong nerves in the tie-break.
