Volleyball SuperLega – The “Sleeping Beauty” Siena wakes up, the horizons of Milan change – iVolley Magazine
Perugia continues to stroll wherever it plays, but the rest of the matches of the day, without forgetting the one in Taranto on Saturday, showed a different face of the SuperLega. The victory of Vincenzo Di Pinto’s team has downsized Verona, that of Monza (without Grozer) in Civitanova has brought the boys from Eccheli back to the play off area. The enterprise of Milan against Modena opens up different horizons for Ishikawa and his companions. Cisterna confirmed that he has the ability not to fear anyone (it’s a pity he lacks a bit of continuity) and that he can fight with everyone.
The real feat was made by Siena which, like Sleeping Beauty, came back to life when no one believed in it anymore. Piacenza perhaps took it lightly, but like many other times in the past, even after the change of coach, its best quality is not in continuity.
