Scudetto final: Milan returns to Conegliano to extend series

After the failed draw in front of a packed Unipol Forum of Assago in game 2, Numia Vero Volley Milano returns to the Palaverde di Villorba with one goal: to cancel Prosecco Doc Imoco Conegliano’s first match point and keep the Scudetto race alive. Appointment for Tuesday, April 22 at 8:30 p.m. (live coverage by Rai Sport, DAZN and VBTV)

Orro and teammates need to go beyond their limits after the first two hard-fought but won matches by the Panthers: they will need not only technique and talent, but also heart, character and the utmost lucidity in the key moments to hang on to the tricolor dream. The meneghine will have to rely once again on the solidity of their wall, as well as the offensive power of Paola Egonu, the team’s top scorer in both first two challenges.

“We return to Conegliano with the goal of reopening the Series – stressed coach Stefano Lavarini to the club’s official channels -We will have to take more responsibility, take a few more risks and remain lucid in the key moments of the sets. We will need even more sacrifice in the difficulties and more determination to materialize favorable opportunities”.

The champions of Italy and Europe for this new season have further strengthened the roster, inserting Gabi (bronze medalist at the Paris Olympics), Zhu, Lukasik and the young opposite player promoted to the first team Adigwe in the setter’s department, Chirichella and Eckl in the center, and Japanese Seki at the setter’s position. Always confirmed is the diagonal made up of captain Wolosz and Haak, the three Olympic champions – De Gennaro, Lubian and Fahr – and setter Lanier with the second libero, Bardaro. Coach Santarelli sits on the bench.
