Italy: comeback for Milano in derby vs. Monza. Trentino powerless in front of Sapozhkov’s 39 points!

2 min read

First two matches of Round 2 of the 2022-23 Italian Volleyball Championship were played today.

In first, Allianz Milano turned around the derby of Lombardy region against Vero Volley Monza from 0-2 to 3-2 to record their first win of the new season. The Cuban Osniel Mergarejo was the top scorer for the winners with 18 points even though he played only two complete sets, the fourth and the fifth.
The German superstar Georg Grozer put down 28 for Monza, while Thomas Beretta made 5 blocks.

WithU Verona confirmed themselves a very good team, as they beat the European vice-champions Itas Trentino.
Beating the dream team of Gas Sales Bluenergy Piacenza, probably one of the title favorites given the superstars in the roster, in the opening round could be called a beginner’s luck of Verona in 2022/23 SuperLega Credem Banca.
However, Radostin Stoytchev’s side downed today also the officially second-best club in Europe Itas Trentino.
The 39 points enriched with 8 blocks of the 22-year-old opposite Maksim Sapozhkov marked the match. The Russian giant, 2.20m, is definitely the new star of the SuperLega after coming to Verona from not such a reputable club in his home country, Yugra-Samotlor.
On the other side of the net the Bulgarian veteran Matey Kaziyski put down 28 points, while Alessandro Michieletto served 5 aces.
