Palloketut of the Arctic Circle is closely chasing Pater at the top of the league, and at that speed, Tampere Strike-Volley was nothing more than a quickly cooked snack for Saturday night.
Isku’s coach, Juha Hämäläinen, reduced the intensity of the match by stating that the loss doesn’t even hurt when Palloketut was so tough this time. Isku and Napa have now met three times and this match went most clearly for the people of Rovaniemi.
The offensive game of the ball players went brilliantly in the match. It was fast paced and intriguing. Attackers often got to an empty net or one-on-one situations. Isku got only eight save points in the whole match.
The star of the Ballokets was midfielder Antti Huuskonen, who played a flawless match, struck and saved perfectly. In the power exchange, Huuskonen collected 18 points.
