Before last Saturday’s away game, in the province of Cuneo, he was missing a point, just one to cross the finish line of 400 in Serie A. And Matteo Mozzato, as usual, went well beyond, being decisive in the success against Monge- Gerbaudo Savigliano: 7 winning attacks, 1 ace and 4 blocks. This is how the center back of Da Rold Logistics Belluno reached the remarkable figure of 400 balls nailed to the ground, in the third series in order of importance. Just 20 years old (he will turn 21 in August). And with less than two championships behind them.
EMOTION – «I didn’t expect to reach these numbers over the course of a season and a half – says Mozzato himself -. And I’m pleasantly surprised. Regarding the 400 points, many have excited me. But two, in particular, gave me more joy: one is the attack that allowed us to win the fourth set with Pineto, the other is the one that closed the match against the third force in the group. And there were even bizarre points: just think of all the times when, attacking, I lose my balance and fall back awkwardly”.
FACTOR – Mozzato is a farmer. And it was also in the last championship match: «The one against Savigliano was an important and team victory. We were good at reacting to an anonymous first set: even from the bench, we unleashed a lot of support to try and support each other as much as possible. And to contrast the warm atmosphere created by the Piedmontese public. Confirming that we are a united and close-knit group».
