Pinelli: “Hopefully, the arena will be packed”

On Wednesday night, Vibo Valentia will play host to Reggio Emilia for the first of a possible 5 games in the semi-final series. Born in 1991, the setter from Modena, Riccardo Pinelli, will play his second playoffs semi-finals after the first one, lost, with Segrate in 2012: “We had ample time to work well. We’re up against the best team of the second half of season, they obtained more points than us. We therefore know we’ll face a tough team that plays quality volleyball. It was important to seal the series against Cantù in two games, we had time to analyse our mistakes and now we’re working on it. We’re ready and motivated, hopefully the PalaValentia arena will be packed and will help us in the moment of difficulty, because there will surely be some”.
