Reggio Emilia lost the match against Fano in the tie-break, but still took home an important point.
A difficult match last night, decided by the advantages of the fifth set, where Conad tried with all its strength to win to climb the rankings, but was unable to do so. After last night’s defeat, they move to -4 points behind Macerata, still in thirteenth place, because Macerata managed to win against Cantù in the fifth set. Last night Palmi also scored a point and therefore remains at -2 on Reggio Emilia, who are now preparing to face one of the top seeds such as Acicastello.
Pier Paolo Partenio, setter for Conad: “I feel like complimenting the boys, because we played a very tough match, also from a technical point of view, so I think we played very well. There were moments of difficulty, but despite this we did not disunite and this is the most important thing. Coming here and putting in an excellent performance today was difficult because they are a very good team and this arena is really difficult and the points up for grabs were fundamental for both of us. Tonight we had the opportunities to bring home the success first, we had some moments of decline, but we were attached to the score. I think we have to work as we have done up until now, truly thinking one point at a time.”
