The Dresden SC volleyball players celebrated a successful end to the year and secured their tenth win on the twelfth Bundesliga matchday. The team of coach Alexander Waibl prevailed 3:1 (25:17, 21:25, 25:23, 25:19) in a hard-fought match against USC Münster.

In the first set, the hosts dictated the game in front of 3,000 spectators and a sell-out crowd with punchy serves and variable attacks. The DSC women also led 17:13 in the second set, but then completely lost the thread in a rotation.

After equalizing the set, USC took the momentum with them, while the Elbe club initially acted with the handbrake on. However, after trailing 12:16, a jolt went through the team, with the recently signed Pia Timmer providing a breath of fresh air and more block presence against USC attacker Gloria Mutiri after her substitution.

In an open exchange of blows with many long rallies, the DSC fought back to take a 2:1 lead in the set. Both teams gave each other nothing in the fourth set either, but overall the DSC played a little more stable in all elements. Grace Frohling, who was the most successful scorer with 24 points, was named the most valuable player after 102 minutes.
