Federico Roberti is not there? No problem, Jan Klobucar will take care of it.
The leader in game one in Pineto, the Slovenian is ready to grant the encore in the Italian Cup (Sunday at 7 pm – Palas Allende): “It is an important game – says Jan – and we are sure that it will be difficult. We performed a small miracle against them, especially because we had lost the two championship games and their arena is truly a fortress. Pineto will want to redeem itself and will do everything to turn the situation around”.
Smartsystem Essence Hotels Fano will have to play a careful and sensible game: “Patience and lucidity will be needed in key moments – continues the Virtus spiker – maximum attention to blocking and defense because they have expert attackers who are capable of changing rhythm and shots in the offensive phase”.
In Klobucar’s opinion, the Virtussini will have to play on the same wavelength as the first leg: “We will have to show competitive nastiness and great solidity – continues Jan – let’s remember that Pineto will come to us with nothing to lose. What I am sure of is that it will be an exciting and intense match”.
On the Abruzzo side, a prompt redemption is expected from the Finnish Kaislasalo, who appeared in the shade in game one and was well replaced by the former Bulfon. Mister Di Tommaso will then confirm the other five sixths who played last Sunday, with the aim of repeating the same match in January when Abba managed to violate the Palas Allende.
