Vigor Bovolenta (Piacenza): “On sunday we will have our last chance to carry on with our title dream and play it all in Trento. For us it will be important to fix our blocking and digging, which were missing in match 1. We will have to be good at keeping calm and not lower our guard. We cannot afford to make mistakes. Our spirits are high, despite the defeat. But often suffering such a defeat can give you a kick to do well. On the top of that we will have the audience on our side. It will be hard but it would not be a final otherwise”.
Matey Kaziyski (Trento): “In match 1 we played a great match. We must be satisfied, not only about the 3-0 but also for how we all played. Personally, I trust this group and I hope the same performance will be repeated on sunday in Piacenza.
From them I expect something more than what they showed at PalaTrento, starting from the service where they can really hurt us and slow down the sideout”.
