Padova won all five sets of a friendly game against the Austrian team of Hyo Tirol. All the players were used as Suljagic stood out with an excellent performance.
“I am satisfied with the way the boys are working – said coach Montagnani – Today’s friendly confirmed that everybody is preparing well the coming regular season games. We rested Semenzato who had spent a lot of energy of late”. Suljagic is in great shape, he might be the best here since he arrived at Padova”.
