Highlights | Finland vs. Serbia | CEV Enel EuroVolley 2026 | Men

Take a look at the long list for Serbia. No changes in the long line-up. George Kretou electing to stick with the same players. Same for Finland. Olli Kunais, Finland. Still the same. Finland in blue on the right side of your screens. And it's Heric who gets us underway. A big firing Finland. Pressure on Nedic. The block is lively. Limited setting options and Nikolai cannot make the defense. Clever. Finland off to a flying start. 3-0 up. Serbia dismantled. And again Serbian receive not quite there. Slow down from the block. Jokela gets it done. Through the cavity. Not enough press. 6-9. Pressure is on Serbia. What a nice mix up. Different attack line again from Jonas Jokela. Way to mix it up. Just remaining unpredictable. Beautiful pass. Wonderful adaptation with the foot approach. Under a second before the result appears. Finland only a one-point cushion. Good pick from Luka. And Jokela continues to be dominant on this right side. Neat sell. Pressure is on. Lubaric works the block. Lubaric gets to go again. But this time there's no recycling. He goes hard and he's sent home. Luka on the left wing. One-on-one takes down Drazen Lubaric. He was lively. Ivanov keeps it on Nedic. But that is a beautiful release. Lubaric could go anywhere. That's what they're looking for. Miljkovic serving to keep Serbia in the match. And it goes long and Finland take the first set. Finland gets underway. Start of set two. The first set 25-19 already taken. And it's Serbia who catch Luka Martila retracting into defense. As Marko Ivovic coming on. As Jokela continues. The focus right now has gone next level for Stavanovic. Jokela now responds. Stavanovic eventually gave Finland something they could control. And that's what you get. Jokela was accessible. 2026 they weren't there, but they will be there in 2027. They got promotion with the Euro win over the Netherlands. Now going again. Takes Lubaric to the floor. And what a set. That is nice. Nedeljkovic making himself available. And that's exactly what you need when you are cornered with limited attack options. Lubaric gets to the floor on the ball. Jokela is contained. Wow, that is so fast. Speedy set from Jovovic. Marko Ivovic. And again this time electing for a lighter ball. But what a block. Huge. Hopanagmi. Wow, hanging with the middle. Aleksej Stavanovic who had battered a ball just now. He was coming in. Opportunity now. Pressure. Good push. Somebody's in the net. And it's Serbia. Playing defense. Hopanagmi comes in. Takes the floor. Gets it up. What a set from Ivanov. The one-handed flying set. It's tight. There's pressure. And that was a carry from Lubaric. Maybe. It's got to be. Surely. Lavenzalmi gets involved. Matila under pressure. And this is Serbia holding on. Hands not lively enough. Oh, and backing it up on the serve. Lubaric is contained. Look at Matila in defense. Noah. Slowed. Oh, in the middle. He is running fast. He's holding his ground with the Serbian middle. Easy pass. Finland for the match. And they've done it. The big high-hitting middle. Huge swing. And Finland take the second set. 25-21. Starting set three. Gets his underway from the service line. Not how he wants it to happen. It's definitely a game changer on the service line. Rokka with a rare receive. And he gets it back, but can't get elevated enough. The runway was reduced. And that was a clever bit of serving from Serbia. Rokka trying to slice his way through. Comeback hungry. I'm no doubt sure about that. Better. Lubaric. Clutch time. This time going deep in the opposite corner. Beautiful touch. Incredible scramble, but just out, unfortunately. Looking to get this done quickly. But it is. Finland, the body language is good. And what a serve. Noah Matila on the service line. Brings up a huge ace at a crucial moment. Finland, 19-0. Big release. And that is the quality for Sivovic. Taking it high. Rokka fires it in. The bomb corner. That is back. Business as usual for Finland. When you thought they were out. It definitely looked like we were going to four. All of a sudden, Finland. Pressure's on. Marinovic taking a part. Good retraction of the hands. On two. Taken. Noah Matila. Fires it fast. And Finland take the lead. Noah Matila accelerating. Two points clear. 22-20. Incredible defense from Noah in the backcourt. Suikinen off the hands. And it's a nice recycle. And what a tip. Looked like they were down and out. And yet here they are. 23-20. Two points away from the match. The pressure's on. Batak fires it again. The Finnish block continues to slow it down. Oh, and this time Suikinen is denied. He applies pressure. Serbia respond. Brilliant dig. A big swing. And a huge miss. Looking to side out for the match. Ivovic serving to keep Serbia in the game. And they've got a free ball. Ivovic fires it in. And that is sunblock. That is huge. And Savon Salmi out on the wing. Gets it done. Finland take it in three.
