Another game coming up for Milan on route to its league debut, a second meeting against the Turkish side of Ziraat Bankasi Ankara is scheduled on Sunday. In the first encounter, the Italians had won it 3-1.
“The test had gone very well – said Patriarca, who won the Italian league with Macerata last season – In the first three sets we played at a much higher level than we had in the Courmayeur tournament. We have improved physically and our blocking has become very effective. Besides, our dig had been solid too against Ankara, which allowed us to play some counter”.
