Lube Banca Marche Macerata:

SECONDA SCONFITTA INTERNA

Nothing to do against Piacenza. Macerata got the the second home defeats. Piacenza played a great match with setter Nikola Grbic voted mvp of the match. Miljkovic still out for the injury has been well replaced by Bartoletti (17 points, 50% attack positive) but it is not enogh. Crucial moment of the match in the third set when Piacenza has been able to come back from 4 points down and closes the partial in its favour. De Giorgi tries to replace Herpe with Paparoni but there is nothing to do. The match goes to Piacenza for 3-1 (25-21, 23-25, 26-24, 25-21).

DE GIORGI OPINION

Today we played a good match, point to point but we came out with nothing. Especially in the third set we could have done more. We were ahead 20-16 but then Piacenza recovered and won the set and the match. Losing is never nice. But we need to be focused especially now that we are plying basically every three days. We made our best but we lost agains like last Thursday in Champions League”.
