1:3 defeat on the road in Suhl
After their exit in the cup round of 16, the Wiesbaden Bundesliga volleyball team had until the end of the month to get back into shape. But that only worked to a limited extent, as the Bundesliga team of coach Tigin Yağlioğlu suffered a clear 1:3 defeat (25:23, 15:25, 23:25, 18:25) at VfB Suhl LOTTO Thüringen and was only able to keep up with the hosts in the first and third sets. So they went back to Wiesbaden without any points, Suhl was simply too strong for the VCW on this Friday evening,
Home match against Münster
It continues for Rene Sain and Co. with a home game. On Saturday, December 6, the VCW will host USC Münster at 6 p.m. on St. Nicholas' Day in the hall at Platz der Deutschen Einheit. After the 1:3 in Suhl, the women of coach Tigin Yağlioğlu are hoping for a home win.
Out in the cup quarter-finals after 1:3 against Aachen
In the league, the VCW will now take a break until November 28 and the guest match in Suhl. But now the DVV Cup awaits. The VCW women hosted league rivals Aachen in the round of 16. And after the 1:3 (23:25, 25:21, 20:25, 22:25) - the second defeat in the still young season against Aachen - the cup competition is already over for the Wiesbaden Bundesliga team. Coach Tigin Yağlioğlu's team was only able to win the second set; the visitors prevailed relatively safely in all other rounds and the VCW lacked so much that evening to leave the court as winners. Rene Sain and Co. can now concentrate fully on the Bundesliga.
