Here we go again. After the bitter road trip to Reggio Emilia, Domotek Volley returns to the home turf for a week that promises to be incredibly intense. Luca Presta, middle blocker for the Reggio team, speaks after returning from the trip to Emilia and already with his eyes fixed on Game 4. And the message is clear: the series is still wide open.
“We’re feeling good, we know how the match went,” Presta begins, “but we’re ready to face this battle at home, in front of our fans. The series is still wide open because we have Game 4 at our disposal. We’re thinking day after day about facing Reggio Emilia on Sunday.”
Words full of awareness, but also realism. Because the Domotek middle blocker isn’t looking for excuses. “Today, more than ever, we need to work hard on the details,” he emphasizes. “Probably, in the first two sets, if a little something had changed on the final serves, we’d be here telling a different story. But ifs and buts won’t get you anywhere.”
Presta emphasizes this team’s identity: mature, experienced, and capable of staying strong in difficult moments. “We’re aware of the team we are. We must know how to face difficult moments. We are mature, experienced people who know how to face difficult moments. This match didn’t go the way we wanted, but we’re also aware of our strengths and our strengths.”
Our lineup? “We always play through the center and will continue to play through the center,” says Presta. “The challenge is on. We’re all ready to fight. The important thing must be our strength, which has always been the team. Let’s not hide it; we know the individuals and the players we have, but you can’t win important matches alone.”
