The Futura Terracina volleyball team recently faced a difficult away match against Alfieri Cagliari, suffering a clear defeat. Despite the hard blow, the team maintains a three-point lead in the standings, but the gap is reduced with the Cagliaritans now close on their trail.
Match Analysis and Perspectives
Coach Mario Milazzo recognized the superiority of the opponent, admitting that the Cagliaritans were in enviable form, while his team was showing signs of fatigue. “We knew it would be tough” commented Milazzo, highlighting the pressure from Alfieri Cagliari in trying to compete for first place. With the Easter break spent in the final four of the Italian Cup, the team had no moments of rest, accumulating tiredness.
Upcoming Commitments and Strategies
The next match will see Futura Terracina face Anzio, the third strength of the group. “The calendar doesn’t allow us breaks, but we will be ready,” said Milazzo. With the play offs on the horizon and only the top two teams qualified, each match becomes crucial for defining the final positions. A further challenge will arise in the direct clash between Anzio and Alfieri Cagliari, a match that could be decisive for the final ranking.
Other Updates from the Championship
Meanwhile, the First Division team led by Mirko Carnevale, despite a reshuffled lineup, guaranteed qualification for the play offs as second in the standings after a tie break defeat against Pianeta Volley Aprilia. In the youth tournaments, the teams showed excellent performances, with the exception of a defeat for one of the Under 16 teams against Volley Terracina.
Events and Awards
Federica Malandruccolo has been called up for an upcoming Club Italia gathering, a sign of the emerging talent in the team. Furthermore, Giorgia Di Sauro and Sofia Visone will represent Futura Terracina in the Trofeo dei Territori, further testimony to the club’s strong youth commitment.
