On Tuesday evening, Montenegro’s OK HERCEG NOVI enjoyed a dream start to their maiden campaign in the women’s CEV Volleyball Challenge Cup. In the first of two matches with Norway’s BK TROMSØ, the hosts cruised to a comprehensive 3-0 victory (25-9, 25-10, 25-10). They could not have dreamed of a better way to celebrate their historic debut in European competitions!

Home star Tatjana Bokan and Russia-born Diana Balai delivered a terrific performance – and the hosts were so dominant that the Montenegrin coach was able to provide all players on the roster with the opportunity to take to the court. This way, taking two sets from the re-match on Wednesday night will be enough for OK HERCEG NOVI to secure their spot in the 16th Finals of the European competition.

“Congratulations to my team, we played a good game but frankly speaking, we excepted more resistance from our opponent. We have one more match tomorrow, and after that we will hopefully host the team from Belgium in the next round.”
