After two games, Bassano is still stuck without any victories, although this did not stop Guarise and co to gather two precious points against two good teams such as Massa and Crema.

“We are a very young team that can and has to improve a lot – explained the Romanian coach Cretu – we knew we would face many difficulties, so we won’t put our heads down for two defeats suffered in the fifth set. However, the shame is that a victory would have done a lot of good to the spirit of the group”.
