Thrilling game that went all the way to the tie-break and got the crowd passionately involved until the end in Ravenna. Thanks to this victory, Verona moves up to fourth right behind Trento. MVP: Gasparini.
Andrea Giani (Coach Calzedonia Verona): “This team is doing great things but can still improve in the way it handles the attack for example. We have seen a few teams now and we know we can reach a good position in the table, but only if we keep working as hard as we’ve done so far”.
Andrea Bari (CMC Ravenna): “We’re disappointed, we were hoping to get more than one point from this game. Overall, we played a good game but unfortunately we had some black-outs when it mattered most”.
