The last day of the Regular Season, one of the most exciting rounds ever, offers an overtaking at the top, in terms of set ratio, and an overtaking at the bottom, with two simultaneous infinite tie breaks to keep the fans glued to the stands and on the screens. A regular season finale not suitable for the faint of heart, closed with epic sprints.
The success in three sets at the Kioene Arena allows Itas Trentino to win the Regular Season by a hair’s breadth thanks to the finish on equal points with the Block Devils, but with a better set quotient compared to Sir Susa Vim Perugia, who slipped to second place after the 3-1 success in Emilia against Gas Sales Bluenergy Piacenza (fifth in the rankings). Already certain of third place, Cucine Lube Civitanova closes the first phase with an en plein of three-point home victories thanks to the 3-0 in the Marche derby against Yuasa Battery Grottazzolina, safe and admitted to the 5th Place Play Offs with tenth place behind Sonepar Padova, ninth and 5th Place to the Play Offs. Rana Verona remains fourth seeded by conquering PalaMazzola at the tie break and thus condemning Gioiella Prisma Taranto to relegation, given the hook of Mint Vero Volley Monza (Brianzoli saved for the greater number of successes compared to the Ionian), victorious in the photo finish against a never tamed Cisterna Volley, eighth. With the entire Milanese stadium in tears for the tribute to captain Matteo Piano, Allianz Milano remains sixth in the standings, losing in three sets against Valsa Group Modena, which thus safe seventh position.
