Verona’s last home game of October finished 3-1 (23-25, 25-16, 29-27, 25-21) against Vibo Valentia. The players will rest on Monday and Tuesday before preparing Sunday’s encounter against the Italain champs, Piacenza.

“We did very little wrong and that is a positive aspect – explained assistant coach Diego Flisi on Verona’s first three-point win at the PalaOlimpia – We played well against a strong team that probably made a few more mistakes than us. It was definitely a team performance, it’s difficult to single out anyone, even if Lasko and Kromm, as it is expected from them, particularly impressed, but it was undeniably a team effort”.
