Volleyball: Super League championship final, Monza faces Perugia tomorrow in game 2

The Brianza people determined to exploit the warmth of the friendly public to equalize the series MONZA (ITALPRESS) – An afternoon to be experienced for Mint Vero Volley Monza, which tomorrow, Sunday, at 3.15 pm (live Rai Sport + HD), is ready to go down on the pitch in front of the home crowd at the Opiquad Arena against Sir Susa Vim Perugia for game 2 of the 2023-2024 SuperLega championship final. The best of five matches are played and Monza, after the courageous performance expressed on Thursday evening in game 1, lost at the end of a more balanced match than the result suggests, aims to equalize the series to certainly play another match (match -4) in front of their supporters. If anyone was hoping for an applause-worthy show in the most important act of the season, in the first match of the series that puts the tricolor up for grabs, they were satisfied.

Beretta and his teammates played decisive and determined volleyball: a mix of grit and quality that also allowed them to win the third set (managed with authority until the middle and then closed positively despite the comeback suffered by the block devils). However, the Brianza team lacked the decisive spark, especially in the fourth set, where Perugia made use of experience and greater freshness (the Umbrians, compared to the Monza team, played three fewer matches between the Quarter Finals and the Semifinals), with the devastating rounds in joke by Leon and Plotnytskyi. Service, block-defense and a lot of determination: here are the qualities, in addition to grit and courage, essential to equalize the series, because Perugia is also the only Italian team that the Monza team has never managed to beat this season. In fact, there are four previous matches played, in addition to the last match: one in the Italian Cup final played at the Unipol Arena in Casalecchio di Reno and two in the championship, with the constant Umbrian smile. Angelo Lorenzetti’s team, the coach who won the Scudetto last year in Trento, reached the play-offs as the second force in the tournament and then eliminated Verona in the quarter-finals in just three games and took one more to get the better of Milan in semi-final, always giving the feeling of having the pulse of the situation. It will be the 34th match between the two teams, with 26 victories in favor of the Umbrians and seven for the Brianza. Three former players on the pitch: spiker Oleh Plotnytskyi, seen wearing the Consortium shirt for two seasons between 2017 and 2019; Perugia, however, will see the central defenders Beretta and Galassi again, who played with the Umbrians in 2014/15 and 2018/19 respectively. – Photo Ipa Agency – (ITALPRESS). mc/com 20-Apr-24 11:09 .
