Friday evening preview for the Campi Reali Cantù. Coach Alessandro Mattiroli’s boys will play on 22 November 2024 at 8.00 pm at the PalaBigi in Reggio Emilia against the hosts Conad. The Reggio team are coming off two consecutive defeats, but before that they had won three victories in a row, and also against tough opponents such as MA Acqua S. Bernardo Cuneo and Evolution Green Aversa.
Coach Alessandro Mattiroli presents the challenge like this: “Friday’s match will be a direct clash for us, and for our objectives. Reggio Emilia has proven to be very dangerous at home, and therefore it won’t be easy for us. They also have an excellent level of batting, and it will be difficult to play against this team, who we know very well anyway.”
THE OPPONENTS
Coach Fabio Fanuli is in his fifth championship on the Conad bench, first as second coach then as Head Coach. The third Porro brother is in the control room (the two eldest, Paolo and Luca, both play in the SuperLega, the first in Milan and the second in Padua), Simone, born in 2007, fresh Italian Under 17 Champion with Volley Treviso. As opposites, one of the former players of the day, Andrea Gasparini, in his second year in Reggio Emilia, and the Polish Pawel Stabrawa, who arrived in the summer from Palmi, alternate. In place 4, a well-known face and a new one: the first is the other former player of the day, Antonino Suraci, in his fifth season in Emilia, and the former Cuneo player Mattia Gottardo.
