The group is back in the gym following its tie-break win in San Giustino. On Saturday Modena will play host to Castellana Grotte, the big surprise of this second half of season.

“Given how things were in San Giustino, we could have sealed it earlier – said sport director Bruno Da Re – But when you look at the quality of the opponent and the atmosphere there was, two points is a good result. We’re focusing on Castellana now. Useless to say anything about them, enough looking at what they have achieved in the return games, they’re playing great volleyball. Besides, the results of the last round with Latina’s defeat will have them fired up for the next game in Modena”.
