Verona was defeated 3-1 away at Martina Franca, who had a great team performance and took advantage of its home advantage.
“We did not do well in the beginning of the game – explained captain and setter Daniele Sottile – In the second set, we were always ahead and managed to win it. We started off well in the third too, but then at 13-16, we failed to gain the point on a floater and that’s when the set was lost as well as a point. We kept fighting in the fourth, but we struggled and Martina Franca finished us off. Above all, there is the disappointment of having given away the first set. To start with a 1-0 deficit away complicate things”.
