ACQUA PARADISO MONZA BRIANZA – CMC RAVENNA 3-0 (25-22, 25-23, 25-22)
ACQUA PARADISO MONZA BRIANZA: Ciabattini, Rossini (L), Nikic 8, Forni 9, Buti 7, Rooney 19, Kaszap, De Cecco 1, Gavotto 14. DNP Shumov, Roumeliotis. Coach. Zanini.
CMC RAVENNA: Mengozzi 11, Leonardi 2, Corvetta 2, Sirri 7, Tabanelli (L), Verhanneman 5, Gallosti, Moro 16, Brunner 2, Gruszka 7. DNP Bendandi. Coach. Babini.
A little more difficult than expected but Monza eventually won against a Ravenna team that made it clear they came to give it a fight. Second consecutive 3-0 win for Monza following last week’s victory over Modena.
Stefano Mengozzi (CMC Ravenna): “Our opponents have led from start to finish. We were forced to chase the score constantly, and that made our task very complicated. Monza is a complete team, they managed to play an excellent game even without Conte and Shumov”.
Sean Rooney (Acqua Paradiso Monza Brianza): “It was important to win 3-0, all the more so given that we’re off to Romania tomorrow for the Cev Cup. We worked and trained hard to get this result and we did it. Now our minds are already set on our European commitment, we know we have to stay focused”.

Latina put on its cap of giant killer again and defeated Cuneo at the tie-break. Cuneo has lost five time away from home but has always taken a point.
Carmelo Gitto (Andreoli Latina): “We are delighted with the win, this is the end of a period in which we had not performed at our best. We had nothing to lose, and we often manage to play better in these situations, especially on the serve”.
Francesco Fortunato (Bre Banca Lannutti Cuneo): “I am always happy to go back to Latina. The key to the game is very simple: they served very well while we didn’t. We’re going through a bad patch. Besides the injuries, we’re struggling to play our game”.

In a game between two disappointed teams knocked out of the cup quarter-finals, Roma had the better of Vibo Valentia in straight sets. MVP Sabbi.
Dante Boninfante (M.Roma Volley): “We finally have the whole squad available now that Bjelica and sabbi are back. We deserved to win it, we handled it very well. We have to keep playing this way. We have to win the games against the teams of our level like we had done in the first half of season”.
Rocco Barone (Tonno Callipo Vibo Valentia): “We did not manage to make the difference in the important moments of the game. We’ve been unlucky of late, and the results are not coming our way. Tonight for example, we deserved at least the tie-break”.
FIDIA PADOVA – MARMI LANZA VERONA 3-0 (25-22, 25-20, 25-12)
FIDIA PADOVA: Schwarz 18, Gonzalez 6, Koshikawa, De Marchi 9, Simeonov 11, Semenzato 7, Suljagic 2, Zingaro (L). DNP Garghella, Tiberti, Cricca, Giannotti, Rosso. Coach. Montagnani.

Padova clinched victory in this important derby against Verona. MVP: Schwarz.
Paolo Montagnani (coach Fidia Padova): “We played with quality today, and at the end of the day the quality always has the better. The attitude of the boys was perfect despite the fact we had a lot of pressure on this week. Simeonov and Gonzalez trained twice in ten days and they still have to get back to full fitness”.
Bruno Bagnoli (coach Marmi Lanza Verona): “We did not manage to contain Padova as we would have liked and I was particularly disappointed with the third set. We are not certain at all to stay up, there is a long way to go before we can say we’re safe. Now we have to bounce back”.
COPRA ELIOR PIACENZA – CASA MODENA 3-1 (25-23, 19-25, 27-25, 25-18)

Samuel Papi was elected MVP as he led Piacenza to upset Modena.
Luca Tencati (Copra Elior Piacenza): “In the third set we made too many mistakes and Sala’s superb block did not allow us to close the gap on Modena. Credit to us for believing in our chances and for playing with confidence”.
Matteo Martino (Casa Modena): “We have been too sloppy, while they have really played well with excellent serving and attack. Congratulations to Piacenza, they really deserved this win. We have to work hard before the coming games”.
