Overwhelming return to the stadium for the Piedmontese; show in Bovolenta in Emilia, a super Semeniuk decides at the PalaBarton. Solid performances also for Itas and Giuliani’s team
ACQUA SAN BERNARDO CUNEO -CISTERNA VOLLEY 3-0 (25-19, 25-18, 25-19)
—
Absolute domination on the pitch and a spectacle in the stands for Cuneo who found the Super League at home again. It was an absolute monologue from Battocchio’s team, who bullied a Cisterna team that had never entered the game. The lucid direction of a Baranowicz in MVP version triggered the attackers, above all Feral who was also skilled at blocking together with a super Codarin, they stamped the success, also with the complicity of an opponent who was in difficulty especially when serving and never really entered the match. Cuneo pushed hard from the first two sets they dominated: the third was more balanced, but it was a match that was never in question.
Wedge: Feral 14 points. Team blocks 7. Ace team 6. Codarin 4 blocks.
Tank: Lanza 8 points, Mazzone 8 points. Walls team 2. Aces team 4.
ITAS TRENTINO–SONEPAR PADOVA 3-0 (25-21, 25-21, 28-26)
—
Galvanized by the ceremony celebrating the victory of the sixth championship in the pre-match, Itas traveled on the wings of enthusiasm for the first two and a half sets, falling in the final third set (from 21-16 to 24-25) but still managed to gather the mental and technical energy to close the match immediately. Ramon, top scorer and MVP, led the Trentino attack, while the Venetians only came close to having the opportunity to extend the match in the third set, thanks above all to their team effort.
Trent: Ramon 19 points. Blocks team 6. Aces team 5. Ramon 3 aces.
Padua: Gardini 13 points. Blocks team 6. Ace team 3. Orioli 4 blocks.
PIACENZA-MILANO 3-1 (28-26, 14-25, 25-17, 25-18)
—
On the evening of the first times, Boninfante making his debut as Piacenza coach at home, Porro for the first time against Milan and Recine as an opponent at PalabancaSport, Gas Sales Bluenergy clings to a super Bovolenta and with 28 points from the opposite team (and 75 percent in attack) overtakes Milan. For Piazza’s team, still orphaned by Cachopa and with Barbanti born in 2006 as director, the usual implacable Reggers who knocked down 27 balls was not enough. Piacenza cancels three set points early on against the guests to take the lead, then Milan dominates the second half. The turning point comes with the entry of Mandiraci: the Turk takes the match to the side of the hosts and delivers full success to the Emilians
Piacenza: Bovolenta 28 points. Team Blocks: 9. Team Ace: 5. Simon 4 blocks. Send us 3 aces.
Milan: Reggers 27 points. Team Blocks: 3. Team Aces: 6. Reggers 3 aces.
MODENA-MONZA 3-0 (25-19, 25-17, 26-24)
—
Davyskiba’s serves (awarded best player of the match) and Buchegger’s attacks give Modena success. After two fractions with the home team dictating the tempo, the third set saw Monza react to the double disadvantage. The guests, focusing on an effective service, even manage to lead 20-15, then Giuliani’s team goes back up and finds parity with an ace from Ikhbayri at 22, putting their head forward right on the edge. Modena’s serving pressure was decisive throughout the match, against which Eccheli’s team struggled to hold up.
Modena: Buchegger 20 points. Team Blocks: 7. Team Ace: 9. Buchegger 3 blocks. Davyskiba 4 aces.
Monza: Atanasov and Padar 11 points. Team Blocks: 3. Team Aces: 6.
PERUGIA-CIVITANOVA 3-2 (25-15, 22-25, 25-20, 23-25, 15-11)
—
At the end of an infinite and beautiful challenge to watch, Semeniuk takes on the role of the protagonist. The hitter from Perugia becomes uncatchable on serve and in the pipe, signing the decisive comeback for a Sir who in the short set had found herself forced to chase before being dragged to success by the Pole. In the over two hours of show there would be much more to tell, such as the 19 points of Ben Tara (who however also has to deal with 8 errors) or the 21 of Nikolov, forced to suffer a bit in the reception at the end, or even a great game by Bottolo imitated by his national teammate Giannelli. At the end Perugia found the right key to win in a spectacular match and in an impressive setting.
Perugia: Ben Tara 19 points. Team blocks: 13. Team Ace: 3. Loser, Plotntskyi and Russo 3 blocks.
Civitanova: Nikolov 21 points. Team Blocks: 7. Team Aces: 10.
