A week after the first one, another friendly was played between Padova and Verona. This time, Baldovin’s men came out on top 3-2. Excellent performance from middle blocker Andrea Mattei, who registered 4 blocks for a total of 10 points and 67% in attack.
“We had a good game – said coach Baldovin – We played on our strengths. Only in the second set we’ve struggled, but credit to Gasparini’s serve, I think he is the best server in the league. I liked the attitude we had as we prepare for the Latina game, and I like the way the group is handling this end of season”.
