The third set became more competitive, with both teams keeping each other at bay. Czech Republic managed to get a lead at 14-17, but Spain quickly decreased the gap to just 19-20. Similarly to the first set, Spain and Czech Republic fought hard at the end of the set with the Spanish side defending Czech Republic’s first set point, but the Czechs used their second chance and won the set at 23-25.
Aware of their last chance to extend the match, Spain pushed Czech Republic after the latter created a small lead at the start of this set. Spain tied the score and soon went 17-12 ahead after a single block by one of the team’s leading scorers, Ana Escamilla. Czech Republic found no answer to Spain’s performance and the bronze medal match found its finale in the tie-break, as Spain secured the fourth set 25-16.

The last set was as intense as any tie-break is expected to be, with Spain controlling the game as they took 8-4 lead. Czech Republic fought back to get to 9-7, but Spain went on a scoring run. Carlota Garcia stopped Veronika Trnkova on a single block, making it 12-7 for Spain and forcing Czech Republic into a tight corner.

Pascual Suarin, coach of Spain: “It was a very strange game. Too many ups and downs. The third place in the European Golden League is a great achievement for our team. This is the result of 6 years of work. The Final Four confirmed we are going the right way. Now we are expecting the EuroVolley 2021. It will be very difficult. We are Spain and we will go there to win every game.”

 

Ioan Athanasopoulos, the coach of Czech Republic: “We are not happy at all. We controlled the game until 9-7 in the fourth part. Then we lost our power. Congratulations to Spain. Their team fought very hard and deserved to win. We need to learn from our mistakes today, to resolve our weaknesses, and to become better. The organisation of the tournament was excellent. Congrats to the Bulgarian federation.”
