In the third set, VV Utrecht gave the set win a good follow-up. Dynamo was pulverized 25-12. The last set was more exciting, but once again the debutant was in charge of the Eredivisie: 25-20.

Making top teams difficult
Ali Moghadassian’s team is still waiting six games in the regular competition. They then go into the quarterfinals of the play-offs for the national championship. In this, VV Utrecht can make it difficult for the top teams, believes Moghadassian. “We have proven that it is possible. We have won against everyone except Sliedrecht Sport and Team22. Team22 is not participating in the play-offs.”
Players think that matches like today can be done at eighty percent
Moghadassian expects to see a different VV Utrecht in the play-offs than, for example, the duel with Dynamo. “Everyone is then more motivated and sharper than in these kinds of competitions. Here they unconsciously think it is also possible at eighty percent. That is something to learn from.”
Ranking
VV Utrecht remains sixth in the Eredivisie with thirty points from sixteen games. The gap with number five Region Zwolle is only one point.
