Two teams from the National Volleyball Gendarmerie in the final. The finalists of the Analamanga championship in the first division are known after the semi-finals which took place yesterday in Betongolo. The boys’ final will be the remake of the Madagascar championship final in Toamasina at the end of June. The defending club, GNVB, easily defeated Cosfa by 3 sets to 0. The band of Fitiavana Ramparany, the best player at the national summit, always led in points throughout the match (25/16 25/22 25/20). Akany Sambatra Itaosy (ASI1) for its part, dismissed Mama by 3 to 1. The Insurance team beat ASI2 by default in the quarter-finals. The latter left the field and refused to continue the match after an ongoing dispute of the match according to the decision taken by the league at the end of its meeting in progress last week. On the girls’ side, GNVB will face Squad in the final duel. Reigning champions Madagascar won 3-0 against ASI in the semi-finals. Squad, for its part, suffered to snatch the ticket for the final against BI’AS. It was only after the tie-break that Squad got the win (25/8 19/25 17/25 25/16 15/8). The finals preceded by the matches for third place will take place next Sunday, still in Betongolo.
