The match, held at Viimsi School, saw the home team unable to secure a single game, losing with set scores of 25-19, 25-21, and 25-12. This win not only propels Viljandi toward the semifinals but also serves as sweet revenge after having lost a previous league match against the same team, which ended in a close 3-2 defeat.

The victory showcased Viljandi's strong offensive play, achieving a 39% success rate on attacks, in stark contrast to the home team's 23%. The match statistics indicate that Viljandi was dominant, scoring nine points from blocks and tying the number of service aces at five for both teams.
