The challenge everyone was expecting took place at the Palas Allende. Compelling, balanced, fought, everything in favor of the show and the audience present. In the end Aversa prevailed but once again Smartsystem Essence Hotels demonstrated that it deserved to remain in the category: “Good match and high level – says libero Mattia Raffa – we were facing a team that was coming off an important victory, we must be satisfied with the performance offered”.

For a good part of the match the Virtussini appeared superior but in the end it was the Campania team who rejoiced: “Their individuality in turn – continues Raffa – made the difference, especially in batting. Thanks also to the support of our fantastic audience, we held our own against our opponent, at times displaying excellent volleyball. Too bad though, this wasn’t enough.”

With three days to go until the end of the championship, Fano still wants to have his say: “Certainly – concludes the libero from Virtussino – we will push until the end to bring home more points”.
