Volley A2 / M: Mondovì faces a delicate trip to Siena – www.ideawebtv.it
After the postponement of the match scheduled at Pala “Nino Manera” on Saturday 15 January against Delta Group Porto Viro, valid for the third day of the second round of the Serie A2 Male Credem Banca Championship, due to the positive covid of more than three players of the Venetian team, Saturday 22 January at 20.30 VBC SYNERGY MONDOVI ‘returns to the field for the fourth day of the second round with the delicate transfer to the field of Emma Villas Aubay Siena.
The Tuscans come from two consecutive defeats: last Sunday they surrendered 3-0 on the field of leaders Bergamo (25-20.25-21.25-18), while in the recovery on Wednesday evening they surrendered to S. Croce again for 3-0 (25-17.25-17.25-14) and so in the general standings after 14 games played, one more than the Monregalesi, they are in eleventh place with 13 points (4 wins and 10 defeats), a + 2 on Ortona (3 wins and 11 losses) and +5 on VBC SYNERGY (3 wins and 10 losses).
Against the Sienese formation the VBC SYNERGY MONDOVI ‘is called to a test of pride both to be able to be still alive and to be able to arrive and still be alive and to be able to move the classification to approach the formations that are in front, always remembering that between the eleventh and twelfth there are less than 3 points behind these two teams will play the play-out for salvation, that is the direct clash with race 1 at home of the eleventh, race 2 at home of the twelfth and eventual race 3 again in the house of the eleventh.
The championship is still long (we are just at the beginning of the second round) and with the problems related to the covid emergency, the absences of individual players for various reasons, the postponements and midweek recoveries of the matches the surprises really are many and behind at every corner, but the time has come to resume scoring points to stay on the waterline in the fight for salvation.
The Tuscan one, coached by coach Paolo Montagnani, is a formation capable of mistreating any opponent and can count on the diagonal formed by the setter Pinelli (in case of his absence Ciulli would play) and on the other Italian Nigerian Onwelo, on the central Rossi and Mattei, on the spikers Parodi, Ottaviani, Panciocco and on the Russian Kuznestov, while as a free player Sorgente plays.
In the first leg Emma Villas Aubay Siena, who had just changed the coach, won 3-0, but in that match VBC SYNERGY MONDOVI ‘played rather subdued the first two sets, lost 25-21 and 25-22 , while in the third he fought on an equal footing with his opponents, surrendering only to the advantages 32-30 after also being ahead 21-17.
For the very young Monregalese team coached by coach Francesco Denora (as many as 9 of the 14 players in the squad were born in the new millennium, that is from 2000 onwards, while only captain Boscaini, Piazza, Catena, Mazzon and the free Raffa were born in the last century) it will be essential to be able to give the necessary quality and continuity to your game, still characterized by too many ups and downs and with a really excessive number of errors.
