Italy: regular season is over! Trento to the top, Verona condemns Taranto. Monza stay in Superlega!

2024/25 SuperLega Credem Banca Regular Season has come to an electrifying end, delivering all its decisive outcomes.
Itas Trentino, thanks to a commanding 0-3 (26:28, 14:25, 21:25) win on the field of Padova, claims the top spot by set quotient, edging out Sir Susa Vim Perugia, who finishes second.
Trentino and Perugia finished with the same number of points and victories, but the first one takes the Regular Season crown by virtue of set quotient. The difference was due a set loss of titleholders on today games on the field of Gas Sales BluEnergy Piacenza, 1-3 (19:25, 16:25, 27:25, 14:25).
They now face Cisterna Volley, in the playoffs, while Perugia takes on Valsa Group Modena.
Vero Volley Monza secures survival in a dramatic five-setter, 3-2 (25:27, 25:19, 26:28, 26:24, 17:15), over Cisterna, securing the crucial points needed to stay in SuperLega. Protagonist of their last-minute survival, MVP Erik Rohrs led the charge with 16 points to his name, while Cisterna, finishing eighth, now prepare themselves for a tough Playoff clash against Trentino.
On the other hand, Gioiella Prisma Taranto fight until the end, but is relegated.
Despite a heroic performance against Rana Verona, their 22-3 (21:25, 31:29, 27:25, 17:25, 12:15) loss—combined with Monza’s victory—seals their fate. MVP Noumory Keita with 35 points led Verona to a fourth-place finish, setting up a quarterfinal battle against Piacenza.
Other results include the straight sets win of Valsa Group Modena on the field of Allianz Milano, 0-3 (22:25, 23:25, 23:25), who said goodbye to historic captain Matteo Piano, who say good bye to volleyball in a heartbreaking celebration at the end of the match,

and Cucine Lube Civitanova, who dominated Yuasa Battery Grottazzolina in derby 3-0 (25:16, 25:23, 25:19).
