DOMINICAN REPUBLIC, BRONZE MEDALIST

The tough Dominicans finished third after they defeated Italy in four sets, 3-1 (15-25, 25-22, 25-18, 26-24).
Finally, the Italians bowed down their heads to the strong Dominicans .

It was an undesirable start from the Dominicans in the opening set due to their faulty and bad receptions. So, the Italians utilized the chance to get an easy win with their accurate attacks and kills above the nest.

But the second set has changed for the Latina ladies, though the European powerhouse continued with their superb offense and defense. However, Dominican Republic went ahead, 25-22.

The third set showed more aggressive Dominicans in their offense. With their powerful attacks plus beautiful serves made them win the set, 25-18.

It was the last set for the Italians to force the Dominicans in a decider. Both squads were trying to go ahead to seal the match but the latter responded well and ended 4th set, 26-24.

Congratulations for both squads. Great job from the Italians who really fought well in this year's Montreux volleyball tournament.
