In the “Volley for Christian” tournament in San Benedetto del Tronto, Taranto was defeated by Cuneo 3-0. Giuliani lined up its best starting six for the first time this season and Taranto’s game lasted no more than one set. Indeed, Montagnani’s boys were 22-20 up but then, middleblocker went out injured and the team lost its rhythm. Taranto struggled in reception which influenced the rest of the game too.
“This was the worst possible opponent to be drawn against – said sport director De Patto – We knew it was going to be hard to play face to face against one of the strongest team of the A1”.
