Luca Cantagalli’s boys had the better of Santa Croce in a return friendly following the one played in October. Back then, Massa had won it 3-1 while this time round the game went to the tie-break (15-11; 26-24; 23-25; 13-25; 15-12). The score is not that important though. What matters is that the team looked lively, reactive and willing to overcome as soon as possible this difficult spell following back to back defeats at the hand of Ravenna and Bologna. A good omen ahead of the tricky trip to Gioia del Colle.
