Verona will play host to Piacenza tomorrow at noon in the fifth round of the SuperLega. Unusual time for a game at lunch, and for the occasion the club will offer the fans some rice and the speck from the Alto Adige region after the encounter. This should make it a lovely and special post game to spend with the players too.
Meanwhile, Carmelo Gitto was named MVP of the opening game of the Challenge Cup, won against the Portuguese side of Azores. “We did well not to underestimate the Portuguese – said Carmelo who scored 9 points in three sets in the 16th of finals first leg – We stayed focused from start to finish. I am glad I had the chance to play and I think I had a good game. We’ll see what happens in the return leg, which will be a different game because we’ll have a long trip before the match”.
