Alberto Giuliani (Wixo LPR Piacenza): “Milano has some great hammers as Schott, Abdel-Aziz and Cebulj, all of them put us in trouble. We were good in take advantage of their absences, and above all to stay focused in the crunch times of the sets. It wasn’t easty to play this way after the complicated game of Latina. We are good in improving, especially in the fundamental of serve”.
