Brazilian star Vitor Yudi Yamamoto was named Player of the Match as the Black Hawks climbed to sixth place on the points table with seven points.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The hosts came out firing, taking an early two-set lead as the Goa Guardians struggled to find consistency and committed costly unforced errors. Despite Prince\u2019s strong showing at the net that helped Goa claim the third set, Hyderabad\u2019s attacking trio of Yamamoto, Sahil Kumar, and Niyaz Abdul proved too much to handle, sealing a vital 3\u20131 win for the home side.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the opening set, Yamamoto and Sahil dominated the attack, while Nathaniel Dickinson and Chirag Yadav fought hard to keep Goa in contention. A fierce spike from Sahil closed out the set in Hyderabad\u2019s favour.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The second set saw both teams trade points evenly, with Goa gaining brief control through Dushyant\u2019s sharp blocking. However, Niyaz broke through with crucial points before Sahil once again delivered under pressure to give Hyderabad a two-set cushion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-58045\" src=\"https:\/\/newswiredelhi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/2-24.jpg\" alt=\"Hyderabad Black Hawks Outshine Goa Guardians with a 3\u20131 Triumph - PNN\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\"><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Goa showed resilience in the third set, riding on Dushyant Singh\u2019s fiery super serve and coordinated plays from Prince and Gaurav Yadav, who helped them pull one back.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hyderabad quickly regrouped in the fourth set, with Shikhar Singh\u2019s excellent blocking and Yamamoto\u2019s unstoppable spikes dismantling Goa\u2019s defence. Continuous unforced errors from the Guardians widened the gap, allowing Hyderabad to cruise to a confident finish and secure a much-needed victory.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kankanala Abhishek Reddy, Principal Owner of the Hyderabad Black Hawks, expressed his delight after the win:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt was a crucial match for us to stay alive in the semi-final race, and the team rose to the occasion.
