CEV Cup 2009/2010

Quote from YavorD

I also think a possible final tournament with Iraklis and Piacenza would be great but I believe Iraklis will have more problems against Patron rather than Noliko.. Yordanov is gradually getting into a proper shape again, with Zhekov and Israel Rodrigues it's gonna be very interesting Maybe only Cuneo is 80% sure for the final round for now..

I would like to see in the final Patra and Cuneo.Last year Panathinaikos won against Cuneo in the semifinal.I hope a Greek team can win the CEV Cup this time.I think Patra is better team than Iraklis this year.

I `m not sure whether Iraklis IS better or LOOKS better. The last games under Brooks were against easy opponents.

Anyway i`m not very optimistic. I`d be thrilled with another Final4 but i don`t see it.
On the other hand last season the team proved me 100% , i "predicted" two easy 3-0 loses in the final4. Boy i was wrong

I really want Patra to reach the final, it is time for their success

I'm happy with you too This result is good also for ZAKSA, especially they were loosing 2-0. I hope for a good revange and win in Poland.

AZS Częstochowa lost in straight sets against Iskra Odintsovo in Russia. Well, no surprise. With this squad AZS had not much to say against Russian team. 1/4 is a success for Częstochowa. It was very difficult to achieve more with these players...

AZS Częstochowa - Iskra Odintsovo 1:3

ZAKSA Kędzierzyn Koźle-Arkas Izmir 3:1

In the next roundo od Cev Cup Zaksa going to play with Copra Piacenza

And Patra lost

Challenge Round
Tours VB (FRA) - Iskra Odintsovo (RUS)
Noliko Maaseik (BEL) - E.A. Patron (GRE)
CoprAtlantide Piacenza (ITA) - ZAKSA Kedzierzyn-Kozle (POL)
CAI Teruel (ESP) - Bre Banca Lannutti Cuneo (ITA)

I don't know WTF... but E.A.Patron won the golden set 15:11

I think on the CEV's website they made mistake

So what is the final result?

So, as I expected - ZAKSA won I'm very glad. Krzysztof Stelmach is doing a great job in this club. Copra Piacenza is the next opponent - definitely difficult, but beatable in this season, I believe...
