Hyderabad: Mumbai Meteors defeated the Goa Guardians 15-8, 15-8, 16-14 to book a spot in the final of the RR Kabel Prime Volleyball League powered by Scapia at the Gachibowli Indoor Stadium here on Friday.
Shubham Chaudhary was named the Player of the Match.
Goa showed their attacking intent early on with Nathaniel Dickinson’s spike and Rohit Yadav’s power-packed serve. But Goa’s defence struggled against consistent attacks from Mumbai’s Shubham Chaudhary and Amit Gulia. Dickinson’s spike helped Goa win a super point, but Mumbai’s disciplined formation edged the Meteors ahead.
Prince tried to counterattack for Goa from the middle zone, but Karthik kept Mumbai stable. Smart play from Shubham minimised Mumbai’s errors. Goa made a change in formation, bringing on setter Aravind to turn the momentum. A super serve from LM Manoj gave the Guardians a moment to celebrate. But Prince’s overhit shot cost Goa a super point, helping Mumbai take a two-set lead.
Amit’s super serve continued Mumbai’s dominance while adding more pressure on Goa. Petter Ostvik won the battle against Prince in the third set, helping Mumbai control the middle zone. Vikram won a super point, giving a glimmer of hope to the Goa fans. But just when it looked like Goa would fight back, Karthik blocked Chirag Yadav’s spike, helping Mumbai win the game and reach the final.
