It was a clear win for Lube, especially in second and third set, where Lorenzo Bernardi’s team fell down struggling in reception. In first set it was an huge battle, with the partial finished at the extras, with Perugia who killed a bunch of set points, falling in the end on 28-26. In second set it was a big display of power between the two teams, with Micah Christenson dominating the game and the challenge with the setter on the other side of the net Argentinian Luciano De Cecco, dishing some great sets to his hammers Tsvetan Sokolov, Taylor Sander and Osmany Juantorena. The second set finished 25-15 in favour of Lube, with a complete dominion of Giampaolo Medei’s team. In third Perugia tried to fight back, playing point by point with Civitanova until the crunch time, suffering a break on 21-18, with a great ace of Juantorena on Zaytsev, which paved the way for the final 25-21 win in set and match.

Giampaolo Medei (Cucine Lube Civitanova): “A very important win for us, but the most important thing is that we fought at our top, growing up play by play and set by set. A win with heart and talent that increase our confidence in ourselves, also because we played against a great powerhouse team, a very strong team as Perugia”.

Lorenzo Bernardi (Sir Safety Conad Perugia): “In first set we had some troubles in handling some plays in defence, paying our dues in the end of the set. In second we weren’t into the game, and in third we were good in reacting and keeping the game in balance, we were in front 18-16 when we suffered the crucial break. Lube deserved this win”.
