The Gladiator was sent on from the start against Sora after a few games coming off the bench. The giant middle blocker, Tobaldi, was amongst the best.

“I am satisfied with my performance – admitted Tobaldi – But I would have preferred the team to get at least a point. Nobody could have complained if the game had gone to the tie-break, we deserved it. But we have to analyse our flaws, I myself only had one winning block and that’s not enough”.
