The volleyball players of German record champions SSC Schwerin and their coach look at their opponents in the play-off final series for the championship with great respect. Dresdner SC prevailed 3:1 in the third and deciding match of the semi-final round at defending champions Allianz MTV Stuttgart on Thursday evening.
"That was absolutely deserved," said Schwerin's head coach Felix Koslowski. Koslowski was even more impressed by the victory of the German Cup winners from Dresden in the second semi-final match.
The team of coach Alexander Waibl had lost the first game against Stuttgart, trailed 0:2 in sets in the second game in their own hall and fell behind 4:10 in the third. Nevertheless, the team from Saxony were jubilant in the end. "With the mentality that Dresden showed - highest respect, all respect," said Koslowski about the comeback.
