Italy: Round 5 completed – Verona deliver Perugia first defeat! Trento, Piacenza and Cuneo ok. Cisterna stun Modena

4 min read

Round 5 of 2025/26 Superlega CredemBanca has been closed today and not without upsets.
Rana Verona shocked Sir Susa Scai Perugia, stealing a 2-3 (23:25, 25:17, 23:25, 25:16, 12:15) away win and delivering Perugia their first loss of the season!
In a tight, back-and-forth match, the winners stayed composed, led by Darlan Souza’s 24 points and Noumory Keita’s 21. Also Perugia fought hard with 23 points from Wassim Ben Tara, but couldn’t close the decisive fifth set.
Defending champions Itas Trentino continued their perfect run, beating Vero Volley Monza 3-0 (25:20, 25:22, 25:20) without major problems and with all their main hitters in double digits, led by top scorer Theo Faure, who left the court with 15 points to his name, closely followed by Alessandro Michieletto’s 14 and Jordi Ramon, who added 12. Monza’s KrisztiĂĄn PĂĄdĂĄr scored 16, but it wasn’t enough to challenge a too strong rival.
Piacenza claimed a strong home win, defeating Lube Civitanova 3-0 (29:27, 28:26, 25:22). MVP Alessandro Bovolenta led the charge with 21 points, while Civitanova struggled to keep pace.
At the bottom of the standings, still
winless Grottazzolina fell 0-3 (21:25, 25:27, 18:25) at home to newcomers Cuneo. Amir Golzadeh scored 17 for the hosts, but Cuneo stayed solid with Nathan Feral, top scorer with 16 points, Lorenzo Codarin and Marko Sedlacek with 10 aces.
One of the better matches of the day came from Cisterna, where the home team edged Valsa Group Modena 3-2 (26:24, 19:25, 16:25, 37:35, 15:11).
After falling behind 1-2, Cisterna forced a dramatic 37-35 win in the fourth—one, the highest-scoring sets in league history—before taking the tie-break 15-11. Filippo Lanza for the winners and Ahmed Ikhbayri for Modena both finished with 24 points.
Yesterday’s match saw Milano beat Padova 3-2.
