Palmi needing to step up

After three games for the top of the table, against Siena, Prata and Porto Viro, this time the league leaders Consar has to face the classic spin, that is, the match against the last, the newly promoted OmiFer Palmi, who have obtained two points so far, the result of a single success achieved in the tie-break, at home against Macerata. For the sixth day of the first round of the A2 championship, the game will be played at 4pm at the Palasport Mimmo Surace in Palmi (live streaming on Volleyballworld.tv and deferred on Tuesday 5th at 3pm on TeleRomagna channel 78) and for Goi and his teammates it will end a period marked by 4 matches in 13 days. “I cannot deny that the last two matches against Prata and Porto Viro, in which we played for a total of 5 hours, resulted in a significant expenditure of physical and nervous energy – admits the Consar coach, Antonio Valentini – to which we now add the fatigue of a long trip, which concludes a week of play with little training. But I see the boys excited, motivated, always willing to work and sacrifice, so I am convinced that we will have a good race in Palmi too, where we aim to collect more points to close this intense competitive period in the best possible way. Beyond the record, at this stage of the season it is very important to boost the rankings.”
The match against the Calabrian team, coached by Andrea Radici, a 58-year-old Umbrian coach who after a long career in his region, moved to Piacenza, Fano and is now in his third year in Palmi, is a highly anticipated match for coach Valentini, born in Vibo Valentia, which is about sixty kilometers from Palmi.
