Hypo Tirol advances to the CL group stage
Volleyball champions Hypo Tirol have reached the group stage of the men's Champions League for the first time since the 2015/16 season!
In the third and final qualifying round on Wednesday, the team from Innsbruck did not concede a set at home to Dutch champions Orion Stars Doetinchem, winning 3:0 (20,21,24). The Tyroleans missed out on the group stage in 2016/17, as they did last year, and played in the German Bundesliga in between.
Now in CL Group C
Manager Hannes Kronthaler's squad can now take on three of the continent's biggest club teams in Group C. They start on November 13th at the Polish team Zawiercie. The other away games are scheduled for December 18 at Milano and January 29 at Belgian team Knack Roeselare.
Tirol's home games will be fixed when the venue is clear. Hypo Tirol's last appearance in the Champions League main round was on January 26, 2016.
