The Playoffs Can Come

The playoffs begin next weekend. It's good timing for Gislaved.

FINAL SCORE: Sollentuna 0 - Gislaved 3 (18-25, 22-25, 22-25)

Gislaved deservedly won against Sollentuna on Saturday.

"We were better in all positions. We followed our game plan and attacked at the right places, served at the targeted players. When we do with continuity...when we play good..nah, I'm very pleased."

Gislaved and coach Dick Runesson got the ending to the series that they wanted.

"We've talked about stepping up our game, and we did today."

The team stuck to what they needed to do, not overthinking the match. Piece by piece, they saw victory against Sollentuna.

"We trailed by five points in the third set, but there was never any worry. The girls kept calm and were aggressive when they needed to be."

Calm when they were chasing the lead and stepping up in key points. It sounds like a good combo?

"It was a really good combination. We begin to find situations that work. It looks good."

The playoffs can come.
