Maritsa's team (Plovdiv) recorded its third consecutive loss in this year's Women's Champions League, BNR reported.
The girls of the Turkish coach Ahmetcan Ersimsek expectedly conceded as guests of the current winner of the most prestigious European tournament - the Italian Grand A. Carraro Imoko (Conegliano) with 0:3 (18:25, 12:25, 19:25) in its 4th match of Group A, played this evening in front of nearly 3400 spectators in the "Pala Verde" in Vilorba.
Thus, Marichanki remain firmly in 3rd place in the temporary classification in the group with 1 win, 3 losses and 3 points, thus keeping their real chances to qualify for the playoffs of the second strongest European tournament for the CEV Cup. Conegliano is alone in the lead with 4 wins from 4 matches and 12 points, and will almost certainly proceed directly to the 1/4-finals of the SHL.
The next round of group matches will be after the New Year on January 9, 2025 (Thursday). Then Maritza will host the Polish Developres (Rzeszów), while Konegliano will visit the Croatian Mladost (Zagreb), which is without success so far.
