On Saturday, the defending Golden #EuroLeagueM champions from Turkey rose like a phoenix in the semi final match vs Estonia, and will have the chance to fight for the Gold in this year’s edition of the competition. Estonia, who also have two crowns to their name, in 2016 and in 2018 respectively, started much better in the match, leading at 2-0, but afterwards the top scorer of the League Round, Adis Lagumdzija and his teammates came back, eventually claiming a 3-2 victory. Lagumdzija topped the charts again, recording 36 points to his name. The good performance on the block by the Turkish players (14) became the key to the success, while Estonia were better on the winning spikes (60 to 51), and on the serve (12 aces compared to 6 by Turkey). 

• Turkey started better in the beginning, but thanks to Estonia's Ardo Kreek ace and Timo Tammemaa's two consecutive blocks, the Estonian players turned things around. Turkey, on the other hand, were suffering from some unforced errors, and Kristo Kollo took the opportunity at the end of the set showing good performance on the serve and spike. 
• Estonia were more stable in the second set, with Oliver Venno on the serve making it difficult for Turkey's reception. The players around head coach Nedim Özbey had some difficuties in organising the attack, letting unforced errors in defence and on the serving line affect the score. Estonia continued building a comfortable lead, and despite Turkey's top scorer Adis Lagumdzija trying his best, Tammemaa and Kollo stole in the end.  
• Turkey rose like a phoenix in the third set, taking an early lead. Yigit Gülmezoglu and Adis Lagumdzija were showing good skills on the winning spikes, but with the set unfolding, Estonia also got better on  attack breathing down Turkey's necks. It was the better play on the block (five in this set) that allowed Turkey to keep the leadership.
• Estonia weren’t ready to give up, and stormed out for a 5-1 in the beginning of the next set. What followed on the field was a point-for-a-point race. Märt Tammeraru shined for Estonia in these moments, but Yigit Gülmezoglu and Efe Ramazan Mandiraci helped in the decisive moments at 18-16. 
• Bedirhan Bülbül and Gülmezoglu took things in their hands in the tie break, although the players around Cedric Enard were also pushing hard. In a cat-and-mouse game, Turkey grabbed their chances and are already looking forward to the Final.
