Paola Egonu and teammates seeking redemption in Lombard derby with Bergamo
After the clean loss to VakifBank Istanbul, Numia Vero Volley Milano goes on the hunt for redemption in the Lombard derby with Bergamo, a match valid for the tenth day of the first leg of the regular season. The appointment for Paola Egonu and teammates è Sunday, December 1 at 5 p.m. (live DAZN and VBTV) at Pala Facchetti in Treviglio.
È a tricky match awaits the Consortium women's first team at Pala Facchetti: the meneghine, still without Marinova struggling with a physical problem, are coming back from championship and Champions League stops and against coach Parisi's lineup they will be looking for a victory useful for morale and to reverse the negative trend of the last week. On the other side of the net they will find a tough team like Bergamo, capable of picking up three precious points for the standings (share 15 points and seventh place for the Bergamo girls) after overcoming Wash4green Pinerolo with a clear 3-0.
There are seven previous matches between the two teams (6 wins for Milan, only 1 for Bergamo), which will take the court on Sunday to collect important points in view of defining the Italian Cup grid. The match's only ex; coach Carlo Parisi, who served as Milan’s head coach in the 2019/2020 season.
For the 80° A1 Series Championship Tigotà Bergamo is set to start with a completely renewed roster. It starts from the bench with the arrival of coach Carlo Parisi from Florence, who brings with him the Cuban setter Cese Montalvo. In the box of directors arrives the American Evans, at her first experience in the Italian championship, and Carraro. Among the women setters, Serie A1 debut for captain Mlejnkova and Puerto Rican Alcantara, flanked by Italians Piani, Adriano and Bolzonetti. At center, German Strubbe arrives from Stuttgart, along with young Manfredini and Farina. The libero department speaks Italian with Armini and Mistretta. Promoted from the nursery are libero Spampatti and center Crevenna.
