Perfect Cucine Lube Civitanova won on road at PalaPanini in Modena with a clear0-3 in first european derby in Champions League PlayOff 6 Game 1. In front of 4400 spectators in the temple of italian volleyball, Lube dominated the game in first two set, as usual with a terrific Tsvetan Sokolov, best scorer of the game with 20 points. Modena was in trouble in finding continuity with Ngapeth and Petric, with only opposite Luca Vettori able to be consistant all game long. Azimut fought back in the third, forcing Lube to the extras, but losing 29-27.
