CEV Beach Volleyball European Championships

Eight women’s teams remained after the first two eliminations rounds of the European Volleyball Championships on Thursday. Meanwhile, men’s pool play wrapped up.

Czech pair Barbora Hermannova/Marketa Slukova, Germany’s Chantal Laboureur/Julia Sude, Russia’s Evgenia Ukolova/Ekaterina Birlova and Spain’s Angela Lobato/Amaranta Navarro each registered a pair of victories to stay alive in the competition.

Just one Round of 24 match went longer than two sets, with Czech duo Martina Bonnerova/Sarka Nakladalova outlasting Austria’s Katharina Schutzenhofer/Lena Plesiutschnig 23-21, 18-21, 15-11.

Two matches went the distance in the Round of 16 with Ukulova/Birlova and Switzerland’s Nina Betschart/Tanja Huberli coming out on top. The Russians won 21-18, 18-21, 15-8 over Dutch duo Jolien Sinnema/Laura Bloem, while the Swiss topped Germans Karla Borger/Margareta Kozuch (18-21, 21-16, 15-9).

The eight teams on to Friday’s quarterfinals were:

  • Hermannova/Slukova
  • Laboureur/Sude
  • Ukolova/Birlova
  • Lobato/Navarro
  • Betschart/Huberli
  • Sanne Keizer/Madelein Meppelink (Netherlands)
  • Victoria Bieneck/Isabel Schneider (Germany)
  • Liliana Fernandez/Elsa Baquerizo (Spain)

In men’s action, the field was cut to 24 teams as the final two matches of each pool wrapped up.

The eight pool play title winners were:

  • Pool A: Nico Beeler/Marco Krattiger (Switzerland)
  • Pool B: Alexander Brouwer/Robert Meeuwsen (Netherlands)
  • Pool C: Konstantin Semenov/Ilya Leshukov (Russia)
  • Pool D: Piotr Kantor/Bartosz Losiak (Poland)
  • Pool E: Anders Mol/Christian Sorum (Norway)
  • Pool F: Oleg Stoyanovskiy/Igor Velichko (Russia)
  • Pool G: Janis Smedins/Aleksandrs Samoilovs (Latvia)
  • Pool H: Pablo Herrera/Adrian Gavira (Spain)

Beeler/Krattinger were the only one of the eight pool winners that did not post a perfect 3-0 record. The Swiss duo went 2-1 and won the pool despite falling to Serbians Lazar Kolaric/Stefan Basta in tiebreak in the finale (18-21, 21-13, 15-10).

Stoyanovskiy/Velichko went to tiebreak with Latvia’s Martins Plavins/Edgars Tocs for the Pool F title (19-21, 21-13, 16-14).
