Recently defeated in the cup, Città di Castello was back to its usual winning ways in the league by defeating Matera to keep a four-point edge on second place Sora. Besides, it extended the gap with Molfetta and Atripalda, left 10 behind. And all of them still have to be rested.

“The response of the team has been positive – said coach Radici – We kept in control although we haven’t always performed at our bets in the block-dig area. The best moment of the game was in the second half of the second set, when our opponent stepped up a gear, taking some risks on the serve. They cut the deficit but we won the battle thanks to our composure and determination”.
