Will be a fight, for sure, Vibo Valentia has our same target, and will do the best to reach it. We have to be focuse on us, trying to find the right approach, we have to play our game. After that we will take a look to our opponents. They are a complete team witha good bench, we have to be serene, focused tough and ready to sacrifice”.
Peter Michalovic (Tonno Callipo Calabria Vibo Valentia): “We have to imporove our approach to the game, versus Ravenna. Will be a very difficult game because they are playing some good volleyball. We have to take care of the details, mentally and tactically. I reached 100 blocks in Serie A, I’m happy, but the most important thing was to grab the three points versus Latina”.
