It was all sold out once again in the PalaAlberti arena but the quality seen in the stands was not reproduced on court. In spite of a tight first set, the hosts could not get any joy to its fans and went out defeated once again by Santa Croce.
« We never expect to lose but this is the fifth straight – said coach Falabella – We have to work on various aspects. Today we have seen Gabriele and our starting outside hitter Kvalen, they are not hundred percent yet but at least we could give them court time. We still lack consistency, we have spells in which we play well and others in which we make silly mistakes. We knew it was going to be very hard to stay up, we are newly promoted, I think we have a lot of things to improve on ».
