The last ball of game 4 of the playoff semi-final fell not long ago. The protagonists of this splendid adventure at Allianz Milano give a detailed analysis of the season as well as the match.
Lucio Fusaro, president of Allianz Milano cannot help but see the glass as half full at the end of the match.
“We lost a semi-final, but we are still in the top four of the Super League, I would have signed at the beginning of the year for this result. We experienced that second set which could have changed the fate of the match, but let’s not forget that we are playing against the double world champions. The extraordinary audience of this era with 5400-odd passengers is a reward for the team and the company. The Perugia fans were welcomed well, President Sirci, who is truly a friend, came to thank me. I believe we are doing something important for sport and for the city of Milan. This evening too we had with us Alberto Omodeo, testimonial of the Volley 4 All project created with the Allianz Umana Mente Foundation, a multiple Paralympic champion. The field said Perugia, an extraordinary squad, hats off to them, but I can only be happy with where we have arrived. Every year we are taking a little step forward. Last season we made the semi-final of the Italian Cup and the play-off semi-final, we did it again, I think with the youngest team in the championship. We have twenty-year-old kids, some of whom were raised by us, who we put in the hands of coach Piazza, who also this season has proven to be one of the best, if not the best, in the world.”
