Giuditta Lualdi warns Paola Egonu
The wait is over: the Italian women’s volleyball championship officially begins this weekend. UYBA Volleyball Busto Arsizio è is ready to take the court, eager to impress, led by coach Julio Velasco. The fans, rediscovered enthusiasm, believe in the new red and white path that starts from the Allianz Cloud in Milan where Lualdi and companions will meet Vero Volley, the main candidate for the final victory in the competition.
The lineup set up for coach Gaspari does not need much presentation: it is enough to read the probable 6+1 starting lineup to understand the strength of the team moved to the Lombard capital from Monza: Orro – Egonu, Heyrman – Candi, Sylla – Bajema, Parrocchiale libero are a guarantee of spectacle and talent, without forgetting the value of the bench with Kazaute, Rettke, Folie among the main names waiting for Castillo.
The precedents in pre-season speak of two white-and-red victories and one success of Milan at the Valchiavenna tournament, but you know, from now it will be a whole different story.

Giuditta Lualdi wanted to put Paola Egonu on notice: "I have a big expectation from a technical point of view and as captain I would like to transmit to all my teammates the 'adaptation to the jersey. Many people have asked me what it is like to play against a friend and a phenomenon (Paola Egonu), it isn't easy but we are working on a way to stop her. It will be a difficult match but we are ready: the enthusiasm we have now should be exploited to bring home some results that nobody expects".
"For Sunday’s match, we know that we are up against a scudetto aspirant: they are very strong, both the starters and the reserves,” stressed coach Julio Velasco.” In this match we have to learn, and to learn we have to play to win even though we know how difficult it is. We have worked first on our game, then on power jumps for which we have used Filippo Lualdi, our third coach, because we don t want to be in trouble like in the recent friendlies against Milano".
