The situation in Pool D is the most intriguing, therefore the game against Tenerife La Laguna was extremely important for Fenerbahce Opet Istanbul, who were ranked 3rd before their fifth game.

Fenerbahce was a clear favourite in the game, but the #CLVolleyW rookies didn't make it easy for the Turkish team, keeping 42% in attack. The team around coach Zoran Terzić was in the lead during the entire set. Anna Lazareva (70% success attack) and Ana Cristina Souza (67% positive receptions and 3 aces), who tallied 8 points apiece, made the difference.

The beginning of the second set was more balanced, but the hosts didn't manage to avoid their own mistakes and paid a high price for it. Both sides were active in blocks - Fenerbahce scored 4 points in this skill, Tenerife 3. Belly Bhella (5 points) was definitely a player who was visible on the court along with Julie Lengweiler and Laura Rodwald (4 points), but their team efforts were not enough against the team like Fenerbahce, who prevailed.

The third set was even more intense. La Laguna started it with a slight advantage and although Fenerbahce not only caught up the score, but also jumped to the lead in the decisive part, the hosts tied at 22-22. It put the pressure on Fenerbahce, who had to deny a set point to La Laguna and quickly after it they got their first chance to close the game. And they did after successful Ana Cristina's spike. 

Anna Lazareva topped the scorers' chart with 20 points and 51% success in attack. Her teammate Ana Cristina De Souza contributed with 17 points, including 12 kills, 3 aces and 2 blocks and was awarded with a well-deserved MVP award. Laura Rodwald with 14, was the best scorer in La Laguna.

It was the third win for Fenerbahce, who with 10 points are currently ranked 2nd. However, everything is still possible in Pool D. Current leader, Allianz MTV Sttutgart have 4 wins and 10 points, also 3rd ŁKS Commercecon Łódź - same as Fenerbahce - tallied 3 wins and 10 points. So Leg 6 will decide who will win the pool, once it's already clear that all three teams will stay in quest. There is no other team ranked 3rd having a chance to collect 3 wins and 10 points.
