Yoandi Hidalgo Leal (spiker Gas Sales Bluenergy Volley Piacenza): “We’re feeling very good with our heads, a little tired physically but in games like Game 5 it can be the head that counts, you win with your head. We’re preparing well, we know it won’t be an easy match because winning there in Modena is never easy for any team, we’ll try to do it for the second consecutive time. We’ll have to give 100% on the pitch, I’ll try to give 150%, we’ve grown as a team compared to the first two games and in any case we didn’t play badly but we were a little less of a team”.
