Despite the compliments given for a good performance, the defeat against the leaders Roma was bitter. However, if Rosalba and co approach every game with the same spirit, the team could go far.

“We were focused and we worked hard, especially in the first set when we managed to put pressure on them on the serve and reception – explained coach Andrea Radici – This was one of the best sets we’ve played this season. Then Roma’s attack greatly improved although we reacted perfectly. Credit to them for cancelling out our set points and taking their chance with Postiglioni. We’re obviously disappointed because being 2-0 up would have changed the rest of the game”.
