It was a marathon, very intense, the game between Kioene Padova and Calzedonia Verona, the derby of Veneto, won by the visiting team after a long game and tie break. Verpna started the game with the right step, by winning 25-20 the first set, thanks to a good performance by former Padova’s player, Canadian Maar. In the second Kioene fought back, with a great turn in the serve for Gabriele Nelli, with him in the serve the decisive break for Padova, who tied the set’s count by winning 25-22 the second. In third a good start for Calzedonia, in front 7-2 but Padova came back in the crunch time, tying the game at 19. Some mistakes for Valerio Baldovin’s team gave to Verona the win 25-21. In fourth Verona took an early lead on 7-4, but Kioene trailed until the tie at 14. Set point for Padova on 24-23, killed by Verona, and final win in the fourth for Padova in the extras, 29-27 for the home team. In the tie break Verona had a great start, and never looked back, despite the three match points killed by Kioene.

Valerio Baldovin (Kioene Padova): “they were always in front, we were good in trail and come back into the game. It was a great game from both teams, both played hard. I’m satisfied of our game, not satisfied for the result”.
Emanuele Birarelli (Calzedonia Verona): “It was a very emotional game, very intense and sometimes not so technic. We worked better in block and defence, but we had some troubles in attack. These are two important points for us”.
