Avellino fought hard but could not avoid defeat against the A1 team of Molfetta away from home. Despite the 1-3 result (24-26, 25-22, 25-23 e 25-21), there were flashes of excellent volley from the guests. Among the winners, former Avellino player Izzo stood out as both teams were without their internationals. Next outing on Saturday with a home clash against Sora.
