Norbert Huber injured. The Polish representative appeared in an unusual role
Let us recall that the Polish volleyball player suffered an injury during the fourth set of the semi-final match with Aluron CMC Warty Zawiercie. JSW Jastrzębski Węgiel ultimately did not maintain the lead in the match, having 2:0 in sets, and ultimately losing to Jurajskie Rycerze after an exciting tie-break.
Norbert Huber injured. Polish representative in new role at Atlas ArenaThe center directly from Atlas Arena ended up in the Łódź Emergency Department, as he reported on social media. Huber received a very unpleasant blow with a ball to the eye area. There was a risk that he suffered a serious injury. As it turned out, however, a blessing in disguise, Huber did not play in Sunday's match for the bronze medal of the Champions League, but he found himself in the Łódź hall.
The role of a volleyball player? Unusual.
"Norbert Huber, who was injured yesterday during the semi-final, will not play in the match for third place [...] But the Jastrzębski Węgiel center is fulfilling himself in another, equally pleasant way - he is helping the Herosi Foundation in raising money for children! Whoever is in the hall - do not spare a penny" - we read on the PlusLiga account on social media.
Well, it looks like everything ended well. And what's more, the noble behavior of the JSW Jastrzębski center and the Polish national team is certainly worthy of praise.
It is worth recalling that since 2021, a Polish club has always played in the Champions League finals for men's volleyball. What's more, two years ago (2023) in the game for the trophy in Turin, there was a Polish clash. ZAKSA Kędzierzyn-Koźle won 3:2 against Jastrzębski Węgiel. In 2021-23, the Kędzierzyn team won a total of three titles of the best club team on the Old Continent.
The Jastrzębie team, on the other hand, is not lucky, having had the opportunity to play in the CL final twice and having to do without it both times. In addition to the aforementioned defeat by ZAKSA, last year the then Polish champions lost 0:3 to Itas Trentino. Now they will play for the bronze medals, after losing to Jurajskie Rycerze. It is Aluron CMC Warta Zawiercie that will play in the CL final, having already secured the first medal of this competition in the club's history.
In recent years, no other country can boast such a series of finalists in the most important international club competitions from the CEV stable. PlusLiga is undoubtedly in the world's top in terms of European successes. Let us add that the Challenge Cup in the 2024/25 season came to the showcase of Bogdanka LUK Lublin, and Asseco Resovia Rzeszów played in the CEV Cup final, ultimately not defending the title won a year earlier.
