After yesterday’s success in game 4, Block Devils today at PalaBarton for technical and recovery work. Departure for Monza tomorrow afternoon. Coach Lorenzetti: “It’s 2-1 for us, we have to go to Monza with the awareness of playing for it from the first point.” Roberto Russo also speaks
It will be an afternoon of work for Sir Susa Vim Perugia.
After last night’s beautiful and convincing victory in game 3 of the championship final in a PalaBarton never seen before with the absolute record of spectators with 4986 spectators in the stands, today the Block Devils are already in Pian di Massiano.
Game 4 scheduled for Sunday in Monza is looming and the Juventus technical staff has scheduled a session of technical work and recovery from yesterday’s efforts.
The team will also carry out technical training in Pian di Massiano tomorrow morning, leaving for Brianza in the afternoon.
Little time to analyze yesterday’s match, the time necessary to understand where to intervene in view of game 4.
Because game 3 must be put into play immediately and this can be easily understood from the words of Angelo Lorenzetti and Roberto Russo.
“In the first two sets our serve was important and they also put a little something into attack,” explains the coach from Perugia. “The match we expected came from the third set. We made some inaccuracies, not too many, in the counterattack, but the set was fought and finished point by point. Then we got off to a good start in the fourth. It was a good match, we guaranteed that cool Game 5.”
Regarding Sunday’s match at the Opiquad Arena, Lorenzetti thinks like this:
“We’ll talk about Game 4 with the boys over these two days. I think we need to take a competitive step like they did yesterday in the third set, down two to zero wasn’t easy and let’s set an example for us. It’s 2-1 for us, we have to go to Monza with the awareness of playing for it from the first point.”
Roberto Russo is also extremely pragmatic.
“Yesterday we started out very strong in serve and it is difficult for everyone to play with reception away from the net. But I think we were especially good in the fourth set after losing the third set with the advantages. We stayed on track and I’m really happy for those who came off the bench because this shows how we are a real team. Now we have to stay focused, with our feet on the ground and try to resolve what went wrong yesterday to put it on the pitch in Game 4.”
