Berlin (dpa) - The Berlin Volleys have also continued their successful streak in the volleyball Bundesliga, even though they have been severely replaced.
Against the table penultimate TSV Unterhaching, the team of coach Cedric Enard won on Wednesday in the empty Max-Schmeling-Halle with 3: 0 (25:21, 25: 8, 25:17).
Denis Kaliberda converted the second match point.
It was the sixth Bundesliga victory in a row for the hosts.
Volleys coach Cedric Enard had to replace four top performers in Benjamin Patch, Sergej Grankin, Samuel Tuia and Kevin Le Roux due to injury.
Three other regular players in Julian Zenger, Tim Carle and Eder Carbonera were also spared.
For the first time from the beginning, December newcomer Kaliberda was in the external attack.
The completely re-formed Volleys team found it difficult in the first round to create a flow of play in their own ranks against the blatant outsider.
But the individual class of the players was sufficient to avoid the risk of losing a set.

After that the interplay between the Berliners became much more harmonious.
Both Anton Brehme and Renan Michelucci in the block and Kaliberda in the attack consistently used the opportunities to score points.
In addition, there was a high number of mistakes at Unterhaching.
The performance of the Brazilian Davy Moraes, who represented Patch in a diagonal attack, was without esprit.
Moraes didn't score a single point in the second set.
The BR Volleys kept their opponents at a distance in the final section, despite some negligence creeping in again.
