Week of fire for the'Allianz Milan

Archived the 3-0 defeat at the hands of Itas Trentino, it is already time for Allianz Milano to hit the road in the week that will see it on the court three times. Tomorrow in Cuneo, Sunday in the Cloud against Perugia, and Wednesday 10 in North Macedonia against Ugd Stip for the Volleyball Challenge Cup round of 16. In fact, the Macedonians scored a historic victory by eliminating the Norwegians of Kol. However, we will tell you about the European cup after the SuperLega commitments looming tomorrow with an unprecedented challenge.

Starting the match in live streaming on Rai Play and to follow on Rai Sport for the Thursday postponement between MA Acqua S.Bernardo Cuneo and Allianz Milano, who cross paths for the first time in an official Credem Banca Serie A match. Both teams are seeking redemption after a “no Sunday” from a results standpoint, with a below-season average performance. The Piedmontese, eighth with 9 points, fell 3-0 on the court of the Italian vice-champions, while the meneghini, in front of a record-breaking fan base at the Unipol Forum in Assago, capitulated in three sets against the Italian champions.

With coach Roberto Piazza, for two seasons on the Cuneo bench now more than a decade ago, Damiano Catania and Matteo Staforini also return to Piedmont as exes, as well as scoutman Paolo Perrone, who was also born and raised in Cuneo volleyball-wise before becoming one of the world’s numbers and statistics experts at Allianz Milano and with the French national team. Among the hosts, Ivan Zaytsev is at 17 winning attacks from 5,000 in Volleyball League tournaments; Lorenzo Codarin at 15 points from 1,500 in Cuneo; Marko Sedlacek at 4 winning attacks from 100 on the season; Riccardo Copelli at 2 aces from 100 in Regular Season; Claudio Cattaneo at 4 aces from 100 in his career.

Square’s words of introduction to the Cuneo match: “We are going to play on a very hot court on Thursday, so it will be important to approach all situations with our heads turned to our court and not to what will happen around it. And we also have to be able, after the game against Trento, to find the game that had distinguished us so far in the first part of the championship. I can say that I will find a lot of friends in Cuneo, that yes, but otherwise I did not manage to win anything in my passage to Piedmont in those two seasons, I did very few things. It will be an important game, like all the others in this SuperLega, maybe played in front of some friends, that yes.”
