The match
–
Civitanova starts immediately, pushing hard on the serve. Trento suffers in reception and immediately grants the extension to the Marche with Yant unleashed (8 points with 100% in attack in the first set). A punctual Michieletto in attack is not enough for Itas to keep up with the pace of Lube who closes with a joke out of Sbertoli. Trento grows in the second set, increases the speed of play and improves reception while Civitanova begins to make mistakes. Lucarelli in the service brings the Marchigiani back to a tie but the Trentino wall resumes the draw. The set remains balanced until the end but it is Trento that closes thanks to an invasion by De Cecco. By now Trento has found its rhythm and its game and the match remains on a level of great balance. In the middle of the set Zaytsev enters for Garcia while Trento continues to rely on Michieletto and the central players and closes with Pinali and a mistake by Yant. Strong part in the fourth Trento that takes advantage of a moment of confusion of Civitanova and goes 3-1. De Cecco focuses on Simon to keep up, then Anzani hooks Itas. Many errors in both fields in service. Lube at the first extension with Anzani Trento responds with Lavia at the end of a defenses festival exchange, then Kaziyski on the wall cancels Lucarelli for overtaking. Lucarelli on duty blocks Trento at 18 giving Lube a partial +5 that allows her to take the tie break.
