On the first day of the Serie A3 Credem Banca an absolute record was broken. The tie break played on Sunday at the Pala Vitaletti, on the Plus Volleyball Sabaudia court (25-27), which lasted a full 46 minutes, is the longest ever for all categories. The Plus Volleyball Sabaudia fought like a lion, but at the end of the first championship game on Sunday 15 October they had to give up the honor of arms to their Campania opponents of Shedirpharma Sorrento. Despite the defeat, Sabaudia takes home a point that is still useful for the rankings.

Leondino Giombini (coach Plus Volleyball Sabaudia): “We missed an opportunity to do better than we actually did, because, thinking only of the tiebreak, we were up 12-9 and 12-8, partial scores that made us hope for a different end . We certainly lack the spirit to seize the moment at the right time. Despite the point gained, the actual victory would certainly have galvanized spirits. However, I think there is one positive thing: we grew during the match. After the second set we recovered and this is a good basis to reflect on.”

Federico Mazza (Plus Volleyball Sabaudia): “It was still a good performance on our part. The feeling with the setter is certainly good, there are some difficulties, which however we can certainly overcome. As a first match we saw some good things. We return to the arena on Tuesday with a different mind, aware of the fact that we can gain great satisfaction during this
