Gianlorenzo Blengini (coach Cucine Lube Civitanova): “Milan made it difficult for us at the start of the first set with some exellent serves but the team hanged on tight and reacted very well. We first filled the gap and then imposed our game. I am happy with the performance and the result, it’s never easy to get back on court after the Christmas period ».
Luca Monti (coach Revivre Milano): “I like the way we started off the game but unfortunately we did not manage to make the most of all the opportunities we got in that first set. Then, we have to admit that it’s been all one-way traffic. It was always going to be difficult to do more against such a strong team ».
