The Modena all dyed their hair blond to celebrate the Italian Cup triumph. And the first one was a remake of the cup final against Trento in front of 4600 fans. This time, Modena was beaten at home at the tie-break but the point taken is enough to go back on top of the league, though tied on points with Civitanova.

 

Angelo Lorenzetti (coach DHL Modena): “We lost a tough, very tough game against a team that played excellent volleyball, they really put us under great pressure. We’ll just have to work hard to prepare the next game in Piacenza”.

 

Radostin Stoytchev (coach Diatec Trentino): “We had the better of a great team, but we’re a great team too. We really wanted to bounce back from the Italian Cup defeat and we did it. Now we’ll get back in the gym to work hard because there’s still a long way to go in this season”.
