Game 3 of the Semifinal Play Off Scudetto SuperLega Credem Banca 2023 will be played on Wednesday 19 April at the BLM Group Arena. Up 2-0 in the series, Itas Trentino will be back in front of their fans to try to close the score in the first of three matches ball available in the series with Gas Sales Bluenergy Piacenza. Kick-off scheduled for 20.30: live Radio Dolomiti and live streaming on the OTT Volleyball World TV platform.
HERE ITAS TRENTINO “We started thinking about this appointment already during the return journey from Piacenza, after race 2, because we know perfectly well that being ahead 2-0 in the series still doesn’t mean anything compared to qualifying for the Final – thus presented the commitment the coach Angelo Lorenzetti – . Our experience in the last edition of the Play Offs and Piacenza’s ability, already demonstrated in the quarter-finals, to overturn the double disadvantage cannot make us look beyond every single set of match 3, which we will always have to interpret correctly, i.e. trying to be present at any time and in any situation. I expect a game that is still different from the first two, with the serve which will inevitably still be one of the conditioning factors”.
The Trentino coach will be able to count on all the players in the squad, who will complete the preparation for the appointment in the afternoon by supporting a technical-tactical session at the BLM Group Arena. In the past, only on three other occasions has Trentino Volley found itself 2-0 up in a series of Play Off Scudetto Semifinals which is divided into the best of five matches: 2009 edition (2-0 against Cuneo, match which ended 3-0) , 2010 edition (2-0 against Macerata, match then finished 3-1 because match 3 was won by Lube) and 2022 edition (2-0 against Civitanova, who then won the three remaining matches, qualifying for the Final). More generally, Trento has been up 2-0 in a best-of-five series seven times in its twenty Play Off appearances; only on two occasions did he not get through to the next round: in addition to last season with Lube, there is also the 2005 quarter-final match against Piacenza (lost 2-3).
