Paolo Fattori struck where it hurts. Mantova’s chairman had yet another go at his players.

“If you keep going like this, what kind of future do you think you can have in volleyball? – was the harshest remark – severe losses one after another have no effect on this team anymore” Despite all the problems and just four wins in twenty games, there is still a chance to stay up “We have to beat Bassano to get within three from them, hoping that Gioia stays put at 17 points”.
