.
It's scheduled for 8 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 7, the first serve from the back of the court for Numia Vero Volley Milan-FC Porto: the season opener for the girls coached by Stefano Lavarini in the women's Champions League will be played at the Opiquadr Arena in Monza and will inaugurate the fifth consecutive participation of the Consortium women's team in the European cups.
An important appointment for a team that last year è came within six points of the European triumph, won by Conegliano at the tie-break of a match with epic implications. Among the athletes already eager to take the court is Olympic champion Alessia Orro, who described her feelings during the match presentation.
"Finally è the time has come to take the court for the Champions League – said the 26-year-old setter born in Oristano -, a prestigious and very coveted competition. We will make our debut at home, so the support of our public will be crucial to start this adventure".
" We hope that it will be a good match, as much to play as to watch, also in view of the championship challenge on Sunday and the other important appointments of the month" added Orro, already projected not only to the European challenge on Thursday but also to the next championship match, scheduled on Sunday at 6 p.m. against UYBA.
