Italy: Monza once again fatal for Modena, Milano destroys Cisterna, León’s elusive serves give Perugia victory over Vibo Valentia

Vero Volley Monza were once again fatal for Leo Shoes Modena in the 2020/21 Italian SuperLega Credem Banca.
If the success of Monza on the first day of the competition surprised everyone a bit, today’s win, valid for Round 12, is a clear sign of Monza’s domination over Modena: 3-1 (25:14, 21:25, 25:13, 25:22). Turkish Adis Lagumdžija scored 22 points for the winners, while American Maxwell Holt made 5 winning blocks.
Allianz Milano, with 18 points by Canadian outside-hitter Stephen Maar, swept Top Volley Cisterna (3-0) which, in combination with Vibo Valentia’s defeat, pushed them into third place in charts.
About Vibo Valentia, Sir Safety Conad Perugia broke their resistance by winning in four sets and took over the top of the standings. The performance of Cuban-Polish Wilfredo León highlighted the winners: 28 points of which 7 came from the service.

And the other match scheduled today? There was a last minute postponement, and the game between Itas Trentino and Kioene Padova has been postponed to a later date….
