Defeated at home by Sora 3-1 in the last round, Milan is now facing a long road trip to the Calabria region to face Corigliano on Sunday. This will be a return home for Milan’s assistant coach Giulio Bottino, who was born in Paola, near Cosenza.
“We’re a bit disappointed with last Sunday’s result – said Bottino – Not only did we play face to face but at times we were even better than them. Besides, all our tactical choices turned out to be good. The biggest disappointment comes from the first set because we made 11 mistakes and when that happens, you always lose. Now we’re going to Corigliano, tough game, against a team that has changed a lot since our first meeting. They have added outside hitter Williams and they have a new coach in Totire. There’s a heated atmosphere there and at home they can give a hard time to anyone”.
