The duel between fourth and fifth of the regular season standings could only end with a battle lasting 5 sets. Even the tie break, in fact, ended with the minimum gap: 16:14.
To celebrate a historic access to the semi-final were the hosts Vero Volley Monza who, after a 2-1 advantage in the fourth set, suffered with the good turn from the service line of Aboubacar that practically brought the match to the tie break .
A fifth set at alternating current with Monza going to the field change at 8:6, undergoes the comeback of Vibo from 11:9 to 11:12, until a match point for the guests that the setter Saitta has wasted with a ﬂot service finished on the half of the net: 14:14. The Turkish opposite Lagumdzija then signed the two final points for Monza, who claim a victory that almost complete semifinals picture. Only a single place remains: who’ll join Itas Trentino, Lube Civitanova and, now, also Vero Volley Monza? Sir Safety Conad Perugia or Allianz Milano? Tomorrow, on Sunday, the verdict….
