Despite Serbia's resilience and the scoring efforts of Boskovic, Turkey maintains control through superior defense, cleaner transitions, and strategic middle work, ultimately pushing toward a historic victory.
It's going to be greeted with boos to get us underway and would we want it any other way?
Yeah you have to find a balance of course, you have to set your hot players not only
above 20, you have to use them during the whole game.
Boscovich one from one, Vargas one from one.
Okay we see how this is going to start.
Yes this is a nice bet.
Lara in these situations what are you thinking about as an opposing player when it's so loud
against you?
It's so loud so it's so difficult to get.
As a middle blocker against the likes of Vargas.
Oh whistles on the hands from the crowd as well which is wild.
Vargas shot down two in a row.
And you see her really respond in the big moments it's always impressive to see.
It's amazing.
Sniper.
Big against Vargas you just pretend there's no block.
You just have to do your best.
Crash helmet on.
Brilliant from Ergay.
Free ball.
Serbia have to take the initiative here of course they go to the boss.
And of course the boss silences the crowd.
Select to take that left seam away.
For sure yeah.
And she's there this time they go after the front court receiver trying to put pressure
on Zalac.
Zalac is looking for hands and she takes it.
Talia Sahin is in.
To the middle.
Has the first set point.
High five.
Turkey at 24-20.
Serve to position one.
Serbia.
Kerticic is stopped.
Swing from off the net.
And this.
We said that that would be a big big one.
Yeah that's a big difference in this game.
And that's second highest scorer.
At these finals.
Baladin playing defense now.
Back round the back at the slide dig.
And in the end they might survive this Turkey.
And then the seam was open.
So there's a whole new passing unit for Serbia.
And that's a big sign that Turches is really unhappy.
And there's also been a replacement as well.
The 17-19 Euro Volley Championships didn't play in 2023.
And again the pass just isn't there.
But it's also such a tough game to come off the bench.
And try and influence in this situation.
No two ways about it.
Still three up.
Through the pipe Vargas.
Water dig.
My word.
Botulin is coming and certainly made a difference.
Vargas has been dug.
We haven't seen a dug that often.
They moved her into the pipe this time.
And it's not an easy ball to defend.
It's just amazing defense work.
And I have the feeling that also Boskovic has a better rhythm now with Mirkovic.
Her guy all over that.
For me that's easy money.
I think she had a good touch actually.
I think the ball was defendable.
Vargas swept up.
This is better from Serbia.
Who would have thought it?
You change half the team.
Boskovic goes with the tip.
And it'll be interesting to see if that was a rhythm.
Popovic has found her serve.
That's a great serve.
Baladin under pressure.
How are they out of rhythm?
We've not seen loads of it.
It's only a continuation.
Tietje's shut down.
Opportunity again.
Comes knocking.
Boskovic.
Three up in the block.
Amazing.
Perfect.
Middle blockers don't always get enough love.
Cerkia there again.
Free ball.
This has to go down.
A five point game.
Meaningless for Serbia.
Tietje.
Round the back.
This time the tip.
Rhythm wasn't quite there from Cerkia.
It might go there again.
The inside 10.
Dangerous.
You run the slide.
Then the inside 10 for Vargas should open up.
But Serbia are there.
And there's two up in the block.
Chase is on.
What a great turn that is.
Serbia.
You have to give them 10 out of 10 for effort.
For the way they've worked their way back into this.
Serbia from 8-3 down improved.
But at the end of the day.
They've been outplayed and outmuscled again.
From Turkey.
Boskovic.
That's too safe.
High ball.
A lot.
It's more difficult.
But in transition you can see where Turkey will be playing.
Set three is underway.
High spot.
Well.
A little bit off the net from Serbia.
That's a good swing.
Juzelac is back in.
We'll tell you the starting seven as we go.
But probably the biggest thing is that Oganjenovic is not out there at the moment.
And that's a big telltale sign about Tercevic not being happy.
So Markovic is just dishing the ball high out.
Juzelac is there.
And the more the ball is off the net.
The more time the blocker has to get across.
Off the net again.
Tip is good.
This is good from Serbia.
They're playing high.
But they're digging their heels.
Popovic with the DIY.
No.
Quicker to the outside.
Set location again.
Serbia needed a start here.
And they haven't got off the one.
Boscovic needs to find the floor.
She doesn't.
Turkey with Vargas.
Watch out!
This will be happy to give them good swings.
Just no easy outs.
Vargas.
Again.
Tight.
Behind the service line.
Boom.
To the outside.
Digs a good one.
Chance.
Teacher.
A faster ball to the outside.
And that puts Turkey under some pressure.
Through the middle.
Juzelac.
But they're all over it everywhere.
Vargas.
How do you stop it?
What a ball.
How do you stop it?
Vargas fires up.
It's so tough out there.
Kachanin.
Can't really keep the ball alive.
You're pointing to your head.
Smart play, smart play.
Antropova does the same with Italy.
But we're seeing great middle work and fantastic passing.
Strained up.
Going wider.
Boscovic.
But that was the first time we've really seen them run a long line set.
You certainly can.
And watched a lot of Baladin.
And she's always consistent.
She's always there.
Kovacic.
You got to go again.
High. That's tight.
And also in these scrappy plays.
Serbia have been.
Turkey have been a lot cleaner.
Yeah.
To the outside.
The middle's nowhere.
The ball's going.
And if not, the libero's there.
Here we go.
Serbia are hanging on a little bit here.
For sure.
But I also feel that the outsides from Turkey.
Second ball dump.
Again.
I don't feel like they get points or the difference.
It really has been.
Turkey's game here.
Santorelli, where are you going?
Again.
And I wouldn't fancy being on the other side of the net there either.
Vargas.
Stopped.
Boscovic.
Stopped.
Let's just have heavy angles swinging, shall we?
Yeah, okay.
Let's have a bit more from Boscovic.
Shoveled in.
Boscovic finds a solution again.
Which is what we see so often.
Yeah, she finds this high deep seam between five, six.
Off the bench from Fenerbahce.
Serving for another historic victory for Turkey.
A tip cup is good off the block.
The right side, Vargas.
Serbia come again.
Dicea.
