A great performance from Vibo ended bitterly at the tie-break. Shame as the boys were close to defeat the vice-champions coached by Gulinelli. The club will be disappointed not to have secured the victory as it showed character and no fear to face Cuneo. But the luck was not on Vibo’s side in the end.

“We have really played well in various moments of the game – said coach Blengini – Despite our excellent performance, they never gave up. Then there has been a bit of confusion, with two calls that went their way. On these calls and a bit of luck, they got back in it and they did a good job of taking the opportunities that came their way”.
