The Treia squad is back in work following their cup semi-final defeat against Modena. Podrascanin and co will now play in the Champions League in Paris on January 20. The Italians need a win at all cost to aim for the qualification into the knock-out stage.

“We’re full of energy after a two-day break – said libero Alessandro Paparoni – We have put behind the cup final four and we’re ready to face the coming games. Let’s not forget we are still in the hunt for two competitions: the league title and the Champions League. The match in France will be key to keep our hopes of qualification alive. If we win it will all be down to our last group game, at home on January 27”.
