Despite the 3-1 defeat against Padova in a midweek friendly, coach Totire was satisfied: “After the Roma game, I’ve seen the right spirit from my boys”. The result did not matter as the coach wanted the players to get over the third set played against Roma and to put into practice a few assignments. And that’s what they did, which is important ahead of Sunday’s home debut against Città di Castello.
