In the fourth round of the A1, Treviso severely defeated Macerata 3:0. A great performance against the ex Cisolla and Vermiglio handed coach Roberto Piazza the fourth consecutive win and the top position in the table. Robert Horstink (Sisley Treviso), MVP: "I am not very surprised by the result, because we know we can beat anyone if we play like we did tonight: obviously the 3-0 is a score that makes itself noticed, but we too advantage of the poor spells from our opponent, especially in reception. We hit the serve hard and tried to play every ball with maximum intensity. It’s a good result but there is still a long road in front of us”.

Third consecutive win on a 3:0 score for Modena. In front of 3000 fans at the PalaPanini, Modena beat Loreto with a convincing performance, which extends the good moment of form of the team as it will be rested in the next round on Wednesday. It is now joint-leader with Treviso with 10 points. Luis Diaz shined as he entered in the second set, closing the day on a 70% in attack and 2 blocks. So good was the Venezuelan that he was named MVP. Silvano Prandi (Trenkwalder Modena): “When you win 3-0, you can only be satisfied. Maybe we did not play as well as against Latina, but Loreto made it difficult for us in some aspects of the game. Still, the win is very important and I am happy with the excellent entry of Diaz: He had a great contribution in every fundamentals and he showed he was in good shape”.

CoprAtlantide Piacenza was defeated in its own gym by the European champions Trentino 1:3 .Led by Kaziyski, Stoytchev’s men played to perfection to come back from the Pala Banca gym with three crucial points.
