The outcome of the first two sets of the PalaBigi wasn’t good, but as soon as Videx Yuasa shook off fears and pressures, another match began: “In the first two sets we struggled a lot, especially in batting, yet we had the strength to stay inside the game, compacting and suffering as a team – said Riccardo Vecchi -. It was yet another demonstration of the fact that this year every game will be played on a few balls, so we will have to learn as soon as possible to approach the game in the right way from the first set.”
A thrilling match whose third set final had the decisive sliding door regarding the result: “The game is over when we finally have began to capitalize on the service and to take advantage of all the opportunities that we built from time to time – added the Videx Yuasa helmsman -. We had patience, even playing in a slightly dirtier way without letting ourselves be influenced by what good our opponents were doing. Thanks to the serve we forced Reggio Emilia to play away from the net and we won many break opportunities. We need to be aware that you have to get into the game right away and attack it from the start because otherwise things get complicated. We are a working-class team and as such we have to interpret the matches by taking every point with patience, a lot of defense and with the right attitude from nine meters without being forced back to the wall first. “
