Netherlands vs Germany Highlights Week 2 Men s VNL 2025

Spar first referee and we are underway. Germany attacking through Philipp Jahn and there you go first point of the match Germany and an easy-looking side out. Champions League title a few years ago with Saksa in Poland. Zimmerman sends it all the way across for Roars off hands. Can't make a chance to set it up for Michael Aie and he is shut down. Roars goes up from the back right to the center. The tip from Copes won't drop. Out of system come the German team and they score and Roars off the block. Masa taking over second duty for the defensive work from Zimmerman. Roars using the block well. Facing set point. Masa. Copes nicely tooled off the arm of Philipp Jahn it looked like. Sixth point of the game for Copes. Taken by Roars and hammered by Jahn and it is set point Germany. Good serve by Copes but Zimmerman's got lots of time to set it across for Roars and he's shut down. Well the two block side-by-side here and we seen Eric for the last couple of points he's had that was there for moral support and setting the block maybe I don't know but Aie got it. Oh confusion reigning here. Townsend trying to convert pushes it off the block. Roars trying to finish the play. Kept alive Netherlands they come again Aie from the right side and it is Netherlands winning the set 26-24 come roaring back to do it. You see a little bit of confusion between Brandt coming in on the pipe attack and Tallweet. Aie gets himself out wide so he can run in that diagonal angle if he wants and Fabian Plax a very experienced player. Here we go underway second set Germany serving the Netherlands Copes with a big huge jump but it's kept alive good dig by Germany and another one from Zimmerman someone else has got to set it It's a free ball chance Netherlands and there you go on two. Kaemink calls his own number. Mowinckel was the starter for Germany now he's getting his chance back in the game again here. Not bad first touch and Brandt how about that swing. Mowinckel straightaway down low to his right hand side right on the top of the head of the setter. Will he get a chance frontcourt as well? Brandt this time he goes with a power tip over the block. It was in early that's way a little bit longer just readjust himself there's the vision you can see him looking down the side of the arms and what's this that pass your arms of Aie there's nothing you can do you can't react. Aie drills it cross-court so Netherlands trying to stay in contact here. 17 serving 20 Zimmerman works it across for Torvey who unloads saying the wrong name you can count on that. Aie beautifully dug by Brandt Mowinckel. Aie beautifully dug by Brandt Mowinckel picked up by Copes. Aie again. Right on the line. Nailed it. Well Joel Banks was saying in the timeout to go angle angle don't go down the line if we see this one here he only had that option to go down the side it goes 101 kilometers an hour it's a tight angle to fight. Here's Copes drills that one just a really nice smooth side out from the Netherlands. Here's Copes traces that one down gets it over Tilla sets it up and Brandt couldn't quite finish there comes Mice through the block and down the triple block and it's not over yet. Decent pretty good pickup really good in fact from Brandt and that's how he ends it starts with the pass finishes with the attack and it's 25-22 the victory for Germany and set two this match is all tied a bit here of late. Well Aie the top point scorer in the first two sets was 12 he's got eight attacks three blocks one ace serve. Copes on nine Philip John for Germany the next highest points or the highest points score for Germany he's got that one ace serve we saw at the back end of the set and eight I did most of his damage in that second set with eight points and I apologize if you just mentioned that but I'm kind of deaf sometimes I know you said he was a leading scorer in the match. Float set picked up by Brandt he's gonna get a good swing off the hands to score the first point of the third set in their leagues one or maybe two games a week. Here's an overpass and Copes just catches the line there. A lot of humans as well not every always always always on a hundred percent all the time so tactics change things change. See who Jan targets here good angle of this picked up well by the libero cloak middle attack from Fabian Plagg who finally gets to get involved offensively His first point of the VNL. Masa soft take there from Copes and a hammered cross-court by IE to give him 15 points in the match two-point lead home here in the third set with Kaemink serving. One hand set from Zimmerman young is blocked they come a bit again more organized and Masa scores just like the coach called it. Emotional I don't know if leader is the right word but demonstration and how about the blocking there Movickel and Masa. Fight back here from the Netherlands until that exact moment it's now in the history books 25-21 Germany wins the set and leads 2-1 in the match. Set number four Simon Torvey Germany serving Netherlands. Toenstra got it up IE off the block kept alive Zimmerman's gonna set it Brand can't finish here's the two ball nice pickup from Torvey. Jan drills that one and the first long hard point goes to Germany This is actually looking with your peripheral vision if you can draw that middle block you know that they're going with it you then got the options which way you go. Berkowt didn't have much choice but to send that over now he goes back to IE who just drills it. Zimmerman the veteran floats it nice sell on the middle attack but the miss from Copes they think there's a touch here if they if they're right they keep them oh yeah Jan blocked recycled Germany Jan again a bit more of an approach over it goes they try again and finally go to number 25 Mr. Consistency in the middle. The Dutch set to Berkowt he's have the sensational fourth set. Zimmerman feeds it out to Movickel good oh I thought it was a good pickup from Towns that I couldn't get any air underneath it. Well controlled. Almost an overpass shut down van der Rind goes up but comes down with a reward. 23 all fourth set. Oh it's an ace from Fabian Plaat and it's set point Netherlands. That deflection off the tape. Nice crawling pickup from Cloak. IE from back behind the attack line shut down Brand. Match point. IE pushes it up Copes taken by Graven Germany a chance to finish they do Krager he gets the point comes off the bench and wins it for Germany. Well the first points goal for Krager is the match point.
