Padova defeated S. Croce in the important challenge to keep Serie A1, after loosing the first two sets both 25-23.
“We played a good game during first two sets. Then, from the third, our way of played went down – head coach Zanini said after the match -. It is a pity, we had a big chance to step on the ranking. Now there are only two points between Padva and us, and the championship is going on always more difficult. Let’s think to next match in Perugia, we must play in a better way.”
