“The lord of the tie-break” VI

Bergamo is a real tie-break specialist. The team played its fifth straight and the tenth overall this season (6 won). The latest brought two points against Grottazzolina. The home side was comfortable in the first and third set, while the second and fourth were moments in which the team seemed to look for its lost identity. There were 30 more points for the league top scorer, Sjoerd Hoogendoorn, while the middle blockers Erati and Luppi did a superb job with 12 and 11 points repsectively, 6 and 5 of which were blocks. Thanks to this win, Bergamo counts a two-point edge on Brescia in the race for the promotion pool.
