Ma Acqua San Bernardo Cuneo will therefore be the challenger of Smartsystem Essence Hotels Fano in the quarterfinals of the Coppa Italia of Serie A2.
Access to the semifinals will be played in a single match (Thursday May 1st at 6:00 pm in Cuneo) and the Piedmontese team, also finalist in the promotion play-offs, will start as the favorites: “Single match – says Stefano Mengozzi – and away from home, we will have to play relaxed and without worries trying to pull off the coup”.
Mister Battocchio’s Cuneo is among the teams in the best shape, just ask Aversa and Prata di Pordenone, both defeated in the promotion play-offs.
Smartsystem Essence Hotels is no joke either after having overcome Pineto in two games and having shown that they still have good psycho-physical energy: “We are training well – continues the central player from Romagna – we must thank all the staff, technical and otherwise, because we are still able to express good volleyball even though we are at the end of the season”. A thought then on this Italian Cup: “It seems that this competition is a bit snubbed – Mengozzi comments – but it is not like that, Pineto demonstrated it by coming to us and putting us in difficulty”.
