The European championship victory of the Sultans of the Net also created unforgettable images on the Bosphorus in Istanbul. The triumph of the Women's National Volleyball Team, which defeated Italy 3-2 in the golden set to reach the top of Europe for the second consecutive time, was celebrated with a special drone show held over the 15 July Martyrs' Bridge and the Bosphorus sky. The lights adorning the sky formed images of the national volleyball players and the message 'Congratulations, Sultans of the Net,' and the resulting visual spectacle received great acclaim.
The Turkish Women's National Volleyball Team's 3-2 victory over Italy, securing their second consecutive European championship, was celebrated with great enthusiasm in Istanbul, just as it was across all of Turkey.
The historic triumph of the Sultans of the Net turned into a visual spectacle with a special drone show held over the Bosphorus in Istanbul. The July 15 Martyrs' Bridge and the Bosphorus sky became the stage for a light show dedicated to the national team's championship.
Hundreds of drones flying in the sky formed a giant volleyball, as well as national volleyball players celebrating their championship joy in their crescent-and-star jerseys, and a volleyball over the Bosphorus.
"CONGRATULATIONS SULTANS OF THE NET"
One of the most striking moments of the show was the messages "Congratulations Sultans of the Net" and "You Got This" appearing in the sky.
Citizens on boats in the Bosphorus and those watching the show from the shore followed the resulting images with great admiration. The show, which brought the championship excitement to the Bosphorus, was also captured on citizens' mobile phone cameras.
The historic night when the Sultans of the Net reached the peak of Europe was truly crowned with the visual feast on the Bosphorus in Istanbul.
