Italy: Perugia, Modena and Padova victorious in Round 17

Milano fights, but it is not enough against Perugia that wins in straight sets led by Leon and Atanasijevic, who scored 19 and 18 points respectively. On the other side another great performance of Nimir, author of 20 points and top scorer of the match.
No problem for Modena, which overwhelms Ravenna with the same result (25:18, 25:17, 25:18). Ivan Zaytsev was the top scorer with 17 points while no players in Ravenna reached a double-digit performance.
Close the picture four-sets-victory of Padova at home vs. Sora, that remains at the bottom of the charts with only five points.
Day off in Superlega for the reigning champions of Cucine Lube Civitanova, who played (and won!) the recover of Day 1 of CEV Champions League in all-italian derby vs. Itas Trentino.
