Allianz Milan beats Mint Vero Volleyball Monza in Epiphany derby

42-40, 28-26, 25-23: these are the partials that rewarded Allianz Milano in the Lombardy derby of the Epiphany played at the Cloud against Mint Vero Volley Monza. A 3-0 win that gives Powervolley three points and leaves the Consortium high and dry, despite a decidedly balanced performance, with the details that, in the end, made the difference.

Admitted to having more than one regret, the setter of the Brianzoli, Fernando Kreling: "We played a good game,” he said on the sidelines of the match played in the Stuparich Square facility, “although unfortunately in the decisive moments of the sets we failed to close. We were one or two points ahead, but we were unable to maintain the lead".

However, the Brazilian volleyball player explained that he wanted to take the positive aspects of this day, trying to treasure the experience: "Today we fought and did not give up – said, bluntly, the 29-year-old – ; this è the right spirit that we have to put on the field also in the next matches".

The one between Allianz Milano and Mint Vero Volley Monza wasn't the only Superleague match played on Epiphany day: in Modena, in fact, the hosts were defeated 3 sets to 1 by Itas Trentino, which was able to recover a set disadvantage: 23-25, 27-25, 25-22, 27-25 the score of another very balanced match.
