Volley, Scudetto final: Trento beats 3-0 Civitanova in race 1

The Itas Trentino takes home the first act of the very final men’s volleyball championship, overcoming in a daily Ta area all sold out (4 thousand spectators) the Kitchens Lube Civitanova Marche. Not a obvious or simple race, which Trento has been able to take home, managing to be more concrete and solid of the Marches, led in the control room by a sumptuous Riccardo Sbertoli. The former driver of Milan is very good in closing the game in the center so much between early times and pipes and, overall, to find a rhythm in the most continuous team attack. Trento who was very little wrong, showing that he had made the most of the nine days available to prepare this final against a Lube that until Thursday evening was still engaged in the emanate and long series of semifinal against Perugia. If then Alessandro Michieletto places the “twentiello”, that is, it reaches 20 personal points, putting very heavy balls on the ground, then everything is even simpler for the Dolomites. Appointment now Thursday 1 May in Civitanova Marche for Race-2 while in seven days we will return to the city of the Council for the third game of the series.

At the start, the first surprise comes from Lube’s Starting Six: he returns to the role of Libero Balaso after the injury in his hand that forced him to the operation in recent weeks. It starts immediately with the result constantly in the balance (8-7) until the first real extension (11-9) does not arrive with Michieletto’s wall on Nikolov. Flavio Stoppa Lagumdzija (14-11) but on the score of 17-14 a back problem obliges Rychlicki to leave the field replaced by Gabi Garcia, who will then be precious during the race. In the set of set, Michieletto in the chair, his wall and attack of 19-14, or the extension that decides the partial. In the second set it is still battle ball on the ball (8-8), until the winning joke of Sbertoli and the Wall of Flavio do not sign the first break: 14-12 for Trento. Kozamernik Stoppa Wall bottu (17-14) but Lube does not give up and manages to impact on 18 equal. The decisive extension arrives on 20-18 thanks to Kozamernik, a break that the Trentinoi are held tight until the end, when Gabi Garcia closes on the first good opportunity. The first part of the third partial sees the Trentini immediately try an escape on 6-2, but soon Civitanova Marche returns under one length of distance. Inside the Orduna in the control room in place of Boninfante (11-9), with Lube who at the moment grants something more than the partial precedents. Inside also Podrascanin in the center, welcomed by the applause of his former audience, but to keep Lube in the wake at this moment is the wall of Chinenyeze on Flavio (14-12). The Lagumdzija Block keeps the distances (15-13) with the Itas who at this stage clings a lot to his crusher Alessandro Michieletto. On the 17-14 time-outs of Medei but it is Nikolov’s Ace to keep his in the wake, with sbertoli who often insists on calling his plants in attack (18-16). Michieletto puts the 20-16 ball on the ground but the ACE of Boninfante (20-19) allows the Marches to believe it again and forces us to stop the game, on the return to the field Flavio attacks out and Lube breathes: 21-20. In the moment of not making a mistake, the Lube is wrong with a dribble in the nothing of Boninfante (22-20) which instead does not do Michieletto with his diagonal of 23-20. Lagumdzija concretizes with the Out hands of 23-21 but Sbertoli free against Zero Michieletto wall giving himself three matches points that Flavio immediately transforms into the final success into three sets.
