The Imoco overwhelms the Tuscans after losing the first set and awaits the match between Monza and Novara to meet the opponent
Scandicci-Conegliano 1-3 (25-22, 22-25, 11-25, 21-25)
–
After Florence, also Scandicci. Conegliano becomes the terminator of the Tuscan teams and finds a well-deserved championship final, archiving Savino Del Bene’s practice in two games. The Scandiccesi, who played for the first time in the new Palazzo Wanny, could not bear the impact of the team coached by Santarelli, which is becoming a real black beast for them: with this they even make 13 consecutive defeats against the Panthers since 2018 to present. Strong part Scandicci who immediately scores a 4-0 run. However, it didn’t take Conegliano back down and found himself in the lead 9-8. A great duel is seen on the field between opposites, with Antropova keeping pace with an at times irresistible Egonu. Paolona is there, the rest of her team, however, are struggling and this is how the Tuscans can direct the first set in their favor and close it at 25-22. Conegliano’s reaction is ready in the second half of the game. The yellow-blue team immediately grabs the fourth and goes to plus 4 in no time at all. Scandicci, however, is not there to let the opponents escape and returns in a draw on 11-11. But when you have Egonu on your team, you inevitably have an edge. One ball after another: the opposite of Conegliano and the national team manages to make the difference and restore the fate of the match in a draw. Even if the set ends with a mistake by Natalia (22-25). On the wings of enthusiasm, Prosecco Doc Imoco literally flies in the third portion of the game (without a story really). One wall after another, Egonu, De Kruijf and even Wolosz do not let a single pin pass through the net. Even in the service the Panthers scratch and so you quickly arrive at 11-25 which marks the overtaking of the guests.
Towards the final
–
In the fourth Conegliano puts his head well ahead by proposing a menu made up of walls, poisonous services and the usual, extraordinary, Egonu who easily exceeded 30 points, making it the MVP of the match. Carried too heavy to be digested by Scandicci. And this is how the Venetians take home the victory and reach the final scudetto where they will face the winner of the series between Novara and Monza. For Scandicci the season ends here. The satisfaction of having won the first, historic European trophy, the Challenge Cup, remains, while to be competitive for the championship we still need to make a further qualitative leap.
