Italy: Regular Season is over! All results of Round 22, Final standings and playoffs

Regular season of 2023/24 Superlega CredemBanca is over with all games played simultaneously, at 6pm local time, with the only exception for the game between Mint Vero Volley Monza and Cisterna Volley, started at 5.30pm, won by the hosts in straight sets, 3-0 (25:22, 25:22, 25:18) led by MVP Stephen Maar, author of 17 points in what was Monza’s 13th seasonal success.
The winners also hoped for a while to close at fourth place, but Cucine Lube Civitanova won in straight sets too on the field of Rana Verona, 0-3 (25:27, 19:25, 22:25), to confirm their fourth place and the consequent field advantage in playoffs. Adis Lagumdzija was named MVP of the match with 17 points to his name through 52% in attack and 3 aces, well supported by top scorer Aleksandar Nikolov who added 18 though 58% in attack and 2 aces.
Third place confirmed for Gas Sales Bluenergy Piacenza, who down 3-1 (25:23, 24:26, 25:17, 25:15) a Valsa Group Modena without Osmany Juantorena, already at 8th place, with a good team performance: 5 winning blocks for Robertlandy Simon, 13 aces and 14 points from Yuri Romanó.
So fifth place for Monza, and Verona only at 7th, surpassed also by Allianz Milano, victorious at tie break against already second Sir Susa Vim Perugia, 3-2 (25:22, 25:27, 17:25, 25:23, 15:13)
