After an initial draw (2:2), the visitors from Ljubljana took the lead with a 4:0 score. ACH Volley's offensive was stopped by the home strategist Rop after the break, but to no success. Gjorgiev's successful attack increased the lead to 10:4, followed by two consecutive points from Šestan for a 19:13 lead. The Slovenian champions continued to push the pace until the end of the set, winning the set on the 15th point after an error by Jovović on the opening hit.
Koncilja with a strong attack over the first tempo and Kök with a block kept the Ljubljana players away from their rivals in the second set (3:7). Gjorgiev added two more points in the attack and the scoreboard of the Planina Sports Hall in Kranj showed a big six-point advantage for the visitors (6:12). After an efficient offensive finish by the determined Kök, who made his first volleyball steps in Kranj, the Orange Dragons took an unassailable ten-point lead (8:18). Šestan took advantage of the second ball and increased the lead to 2:0 in the set.
In the third set, the situation on the court did not change. We saw the dominance of the reigning national champions, who were one level better opponents in all volleyball elements. Šket, who replaced Gjorgiev in the third set as a corrector, scored two points to take a 9:5 lead. At 10:13, Hiša na Kolesih Triglav volleyball players recovered and took a 4:0 lead (14:13). This triggered a reaction from coach Gačič and a timeout on the visitors' side. In the next period, Ljubljana volleyball players put things in their place and entered the final period with a three-point advantage (18:21). Šket got the first final ball, and Koncilja took advantage of the second one with a strong hit over the middle for another victory for ACH Volley Ljubljana. 
ACH Volley Ljubljana coach Radovan Gačič: " Triglav players have proved many times this year how uncomfortable a rival they are, but today we managed to limit them with a good serve and block. We are slowly getting back to the form we had before the illness. I hope we will be better and stronger day by day for the challenges that await us both in Europe and on home soil."
