Here are the post-game quotes following Sora’s difficult 3-1 victory over Cantù.

“It was tough to get back on court after the cup final – said coach Fenoglio – And you could see that clearly in the first set. Allan Verissimo has been key when he came on as the team regained its balance”.

Sport director Vitullo: “The boys have been amazing today. Credit as well to the staff who follow the players every day to put them in the best possible conditions. We knew we would drag our feet a bit after the cup loss in Padova, I expected it, besides, Cantù is a team that plays good volleyball”.

“They really made it tough for us – finally said Alessio Fiore – After this win, we’ll keep taking one Sunday at a time. We’ll now focus on Castellana Grotte. It will be important to come back with three points and then start turning our attention to the clash with Padova”.
