REED. The international adventure is over for the men’s volleyball team from UVC McDonald’s Ried, who were eliminated with their heads held high in the round of 16 of the CEV Challenge Cup. Steaua Bucharest with ÖVV libero Philipp Kroiss was ultimately too high a hurdle. “Our boys played great and fought for every ball. The fans saw an exciting match at a very high level. It’s a shame that it wasn’t enough,” said UVC Ried chairman Roman Lutz after the 2:3 home defeat. There isn’t much time to take a breather, the next highlight awaits the people of Innviertel. On Saturday (6 p.m.) the club’s big birthday party (40 years) will take place with the league match against Sokol Post in the local Raiffeisen Volleydome. There are a few treats for the fans: free entry, free beer, raffle.
