Siena is preparing its next encounter against Alessano at home on Sunday. Alessano is last from bottom but the southerners cannot be underestimated as they won the first meeting in Tricase at the tie-break behind an outsatnding performance from Cernic. Tofoli’s men had missed no less than 25 serves.

« We had a superb game in Castellana Grotte – said Russomanno – We did well in attack, reception, blocking, that was a near-perfect encounter. Now we have to focus on Alessano and not think about Tuscania and the cup before that. We want to take revenge on the first match lost against Alessano in which we had made so many mistakes. They play very well on the wings, we’re studying the videos to make sure we’re ready ».
