Prisma Taranto: Who thought that Prisma Taranto would have been in difficulty afte the Coppa Italia final elimination, was clearly wrong after the immediate victory in the A2 championship. With the 60 points reached Taranto can already celebrate the mathematical play-off access, with 7 matches to spare. Once again Schuil and teammates reaction after the loss has been really strong (3-0, sunday night, on a diffiuclt court like Bassano). “Victory in Bassano has been very important for us because it represents a strong signal for the tournament. After the defeat with Pineto in the Coppa Italia final, someone hoped in some kind of psicological damage meaning loss of other points” Setter De Giorgi says “We really fear this match because it was after a loss but we’ve been really good to react immidiately”
Tactically you’ve been very good to get Bassano in trouble especially with the serving.
“We served towards Karipidis, a choice made because he seemed the one with more problems in passing; in the first two set he got a couple of aces so he wasn’t calm. We’ve been good to stay focused for the whole match”
Let’s give a look at the results. Are there some surprise result?
“Loreto losing at home against Genova is a big surprise, and Gioia winning so easilly in Arezzo is another surprise result. And, to be honest, I was expecting something more from Cordigliano against Crema. I hoped the calabresi could get some points to the second positioned team”
You still are 8 points ahead Crema with seven matches before the end. Can we say that this will allow you to sleep well?
“It’s a safe advantage but that doesn’t keep you really safe. At the end of the day 8 points are the equivalent of 3 matches and everything can still happen.”
