The European Derby is in advance! Poland takes the initiative in the quarterfinals, can Germany continue its dark horse strength?

The results of the 2025 Women's Volleyball World Championships matchup were released, and the last suspense was revealed as the Polish women's volleyball team reversed 3-2 and narrowly defeated the German women's volleyball team. In the end, the Polish women's volleyball team won three consecutive victories to win the first place in Group G, and will play against the Belgian women's volleyball team, the second in Group B. The German women's volleyball team, second in Group G, directly met the Italian women's volleyball team in advance, and the derby battle between four European teams came to a duel. The last game of the World Championships group stage was held between the Polish women's volleyball team and the German women's volleyball team. As two traditional strong teams in Europe, the German women's volleyball team advanced to the quarterfinals of the year and won the seventh place. In this game, against the Polish women's volleyball team, the German women's volleyball team continued to maintain the lead of the dark horse.

Faced with the high blocking and strong attack of the Polish women's volleyball team, the German women's volleyball team has maintained an upward momentum and a leading advantage since the start, and in the fourth game, it is expected to win 3-1 with a big score of 23-20. However, the fatal mistake of the key points at the end of the game made the German women's volleyball team, who had originally taken the initiative, give up the victory that was within reach, and finally lost the fourth game 26-28, and the two sides tied 2-2 to enter the key decisive game. The 15-point decisive game in the

15-point system must not be lost for both teams, because the losing side will meet the Italian women's volleyball team in advance in the quarterfinals. As the new Olympic champion who has maintained 32 consecutive victories in the international arena in the past, the Italian women's volleyball team is a favorite to win the World Championships. Naturally, neither Poland nor Germany want to meet him in advance. Perhaps because of the desire for victory, the two teams maintained a high-pitched confrontation, and naturally there were many mistakes caused by technical movement deformation.

The German women's volleyball team relied on Alsmeier's strong attack to maintain the counterattack, while the Polish women's volleyball team made a contribution to the strong blocking, and the Keneluk's fast break in the third position and Stixak's strong attack scored one after another. In the end, the main attacker Damusk served and scored directly to the end the game. The Polish women's volleyball team narrowly defeated 3-2 and won the first place in the group, and in the eighth finals, facing the weaker Belgian women's volleyball team. After the game, head coach Lavalini and the players cheered excitedly. The European derby battle was as exciting as the knockout stage of the European Championship. The German women's volleyball team gave up the victory, and the Polish women's volleyball team also ensured hope of advancing to the quarterfinals.

Although the Belgian women's volleyball team has the core strong attack point of Hebotz, its overall strength is relatively weak, and many overseas stars have not returned to the team, so both Poland and Germany have the opportunity to win. Now the Polish women's volleyball team meets the Belgian women's volleyball team in the one-eighth knockout round. As long as the Polish women's volleyball team performs normally, there is no big problem to advance to the quarterfinals. On the contrary, the encounter between the German women's volleyball team and the Italian women's volleyball team, both in terms of overall strength and background, the Italian women's volleyball team have the upper hand. However, there are no weak teams in the European volleyball world. Although the Italian women's volleyball team is strong, it also has loopholes. Whether the German women's volleyball team can continue to maintain the advantage of dark horses to defeat their opponents, and whether the Italian women's volleyball team's winning streak record can continue to be maintained. This European derby battle is more worth looking forward to.
