PRE-MATCH STATEMENT
Erik Röhrs, spiker Vero Volley Monza: “The last match against Trento showed that we have chances to win, but we must seize them, as we could have done in the third set for example. It is very difficult to play against Itas, because they have a high and constant level. However, I am optimistic for the next match. We will analyze the match, we will know what to do and what to improve compared to the championship match played on Friday. As I said, I am confident, we will give everything we have to fight and gain qualification. It is a great motivation for everyone to reach the Final Four of the Italian Cup.”
