Haro Rioja Ends Libby's La Laguna Winning Streak 3-0

Tenerife Libby's La Laguna faced a tough loss this Saturday, falling 0-3 to Haro Rioja Voley at Pablos Abril. This defeat ends their recent winning streak in the Superliga Femenina, which included impressive victories over league leaders Menorca and fourth-placed Cajasol.

Libby's struggled early in the second set, calling an early timeout when they were down 1-5. Despite their efforts to get back into the game, Ricardo Lemos's team couldn't stop Haro Rioja's strong offense, losing the set 21-25. In the third and final set, the Tenerife team tried to fight back, even taking a 14-10 lead. But Esther López's team turned things around, taking a 19-17 lead and ultimately winning the set 25-20 to seal the match.
