Abasan Bari: Milano is so sad. Abasan Bari lost against Sparkling and didn’t gain points useful for the standing.
Massimigliano Astolfi’s injury complicated the situation. Daniel Coscione took his place as a setter, Tomanoczy opposite, Valente ad Joao Paulo middleblockers, Battilotti and Enoch spikers and Viva libero.
Milano’s starting six: Travica setter, Novotny opposite, Spairani and Insalata middleblockers, Platenik and Benito spikers, Tabanelli libero.
Pino Lorizio’s words after the match “We suffered a lot because of Astolfi’s injury”. “Daniel Coscione played well but it was not enough. I’m satisfied; we have positive results.”
