Livorno 20 April 2024 – Volleyball, Tomei faces Pontedera

Fourth last match of the season for Lo IES MVTomei. Today, Saturday 20 April at 9pm the red and whites will face a Fucecchio The Pontedera Wolves Group.

It will be played at the Montanelli Municipal Gym in the Florentine municipality to coincide with the “Vespa Days” event which has invaded Pontedera in recent days, making the “Giorgio Matteoli” building in Bellaria unusable, where the Lupi Group usually hosts its internal matches.

Training problems for coach Piccinetti could not be missed for the umpteenth week: if on the one hand we rejoice at the return to the field of Ciprianiwho served his suspension against Camaiore and will be regularly recruited for the match against the Pisans, on the other hand the starting libero will be missing Puccinelli who suffered a foot problem and will not be able to take part in the match.

So make way for the young man (born 2006) Papini in the role of libero; the player has already played on the pitch in various situations and is ready to take up the vice-captain’s baton, helping his teammates in defense and reception as best as possible.

As always, the direction will be entrusted to Giacomo Poli, Wolf And Ian Poli in band, Grassini And Verdecchia in the center, with the new arrival Balduccimaking his debut seven days ago against UPC, who will have permission to enter when the opportunity presents itself in the center.

“We face a team that is stuck in the fight for survival – explains Labronic trainer Piccinetti on the eve – they had a return round below expectations and are hungry for points.

We don’t want to go there as a sacrificial victim, we want to play all our cards and we will face the match to the best of our ability.”

Compared to the first leg (won by IES at Pala Bastia in three sets) the team of coach Marco Nuti will have the expert in the control room Lazzeroni instead of Pantalei, they will then be in the Pontedere starting six Captain Lusori in the center together with Antonelli, Frosini opposite to, Del Campo And Falaschi in band, free Resegotti And Maggiorelli.

They will referee the match Marco’s And Tritons.
