In the second round of the Champions League, Macerata travels to Istanbul in Turkey to meet Fenerbahce with the top spot at stake given that both teams won their first encounter a week ago. In the Fener team, there will be former Macerata star Ivan Miljkovic.

“We know Ivan very well – said Monopoli – He is one of the strongest players in the world, he is capable to take over at any point. It will be crucial for us to contain his explosiveness in attack and on the serve, but we should not forget that the Turkish team has other excellent assets around him”.
