Finally, the National University team succeeded in breaking the monopoly of the presence of the Universities of Bahrain and Applied Sciences in the final of the volleyball competitions in the Universities League, after it was able to strip the “defending champion” team, the “Applied Sciences” team, of its title after it deservedly defeated it by three games to one. Sayed Mohammed Al Abbar’s companions will advance to the “Dream” final to meet the University of Bahrain on March 10.

Returning to the match, we see that the first half was characterized by fluctuations from here and there. At times, the Al-Ahlya team advanced and at other times the Applied Sciences team came back and turned it to its advantage, but as the half entered the final turn, the emergence of Youssef Al-Maloud and Majeed Muhammad led their team to take control of the match, taking advantage of the disintegration of the lines at “ Al Ahly”, until they succeeded in ending the half with a score of 25-22.
In the second half, Al-Ahlya coach Firas Ibrahim made changes in his lineup that had a magical effect on his battalion, which controlled the course of the half in the first half because Sayed Mohamed Al-Abbar and Mohamed Mohsen were comfortably achieving points without forgetting the substitute Mohamed Saeed and Mohamed Youssef Harouna from the middle of the net 16-9. .
This superiority did not last long, because Ali Aliwi provided impressive serves, followed by other serves from Majeed Muhammad, without forgetting that Ali Al-Aradi emerged from the block, and Youssef Al-Maloud excelled in converting his team’s defensive advantage into points, so things returned to a draw. Indeed, the Applied Sciences team took the advantage at an important time and advanced 24-21. .
But this advantage was not exploited well by Majeed Muhammad’s companions, because Majeed himself, and before him Ali Aliwi, committed two consecutive mistakes, crossing the opponent’s area, to tie the score at 24-24, noting that Muhammad Youssef Harouna demonstrated his blocking skill, ending the half for Al-Ahlya with a score of 27-25.
In the third half, the Applied Sciences team was the initiator and was able to enter the last points of the half and was superior after knowing how to defeat the reception of the first ball by Sayed Mohamed Al-Abbar’s teammates 22-18.
However, the Al-Ahlya team, thanks to Mohamed Youssef Harouna’s successive blocks against Montazer Ali and Majeed Mohamed, was able to adjust, and then Mohamed Youssef Harouna himself succeeded in ending the half with a fast ball, with a score of 25-23.
In the fourth half, parity was present until approximately halfway through the half, but Al-Ahlia University took the initiative because Sayed Mohamed Al-Abbar was effective in achieving points until the half ended with Mohamed Mohsen scoring 25-21.
The University of Bahrain hits hard

The results of the rounds of the match, which was managed by an international team consisting of Muhammad Khatam and Ali Makki, were: 25-19, 25-21, 28-26.
Returning to the match, we see that the University of Bahrain was the better party in the first half, because the team knew how to shake the reception of the first ball from its opponent, who committed a group of mistakes through Khaled Abdullah and Muhammad Hammad, without forgetting the emergence of Hussein Ali and Ahmed Sadiq in the offensive clearance, while Hassan Nasser’s task was greater. In securing the first ball.
In the second half, Sayed Nouh’s teammates tried to take the initiative amid Khaled Abdullah’s improvement, but the University of Bahrain hit hard because the serve was working and Hussein Ali continued his hobby of collecting points, and the same applies to Ahmed Sadiq, without forgetting the success of Sayed Jalal Musa in the blocking skill.
With the changes made by team coach Hassan Khalil, the gap expanded at a very important time in the half, because Abdullah Muhammad also demonstrated the skill of blocking.
Hussein Ali’s teammates made some mistakes that helped the American University reduce the gap, but the half ended for the University of Bahrain with a 4-point lead.
In the third half, the American coach made several changes in the formation, and this surprised his opponent, which is why the team quickly advanced by 4 points, but the suffering of the reception remained even with these changes, with a great level presented by the duo Ahmed Sadiq and Hussein Ali.
The half entered a stage of parity because Ali Hassan and Hussein Hammad were succeeding in attacking without forgetting what Jawhar Fares also provided, but the University of Bahrain, thanks to the block and serve, advanced at an important time, but the American team turned the tables and the opportunity to decide the half came to Ali Hassan, who committed a strange offensive error.
Thanks to the blocking walls, the University of Bahrain won this half with a score of 28-26.
