Modena, 20th November 2016
Diatec Trentino fought till the end of the tie break before losing against Azimut Modena that won the 64th Adige’s derby in the 11th match of regular season 2016/17 SuperLega UnipolSai. Diatec Trentino was able to conquer a point playing in front of more than 5000 spectators at PalaPanini (and among them there were also 200 supporters from Trentino Alto Adige) which is not enough to maintain the dominant position in the current ranking. The first place is now occupied by Lube but that point is important to maintain a competitive edge over the opponents from Emilia Romagna that need 2 points to equal Diatec Trentino when there are 2 matches left before the end of the first half of the season.
The team of Lorenzetti had to struggle twice during the match before the tie break which was fully controlled by their opponents. After losing the first set, Lanza and his team-mates started playing well as they always do, reacting both in the second and in the third set as a strong team, with attentive blocks (successful in 15 cases) and a strong defence. The match was characterized by alternating phases, in which excelled the efficacy of Holt and Ngapeth from one side of the field and of the central couple from the other: Mazzone attacked with 64% and blocked his opponents with 5 successful blocks; Solè imitated him with 54% of attacks and 3 blocks. In the team from Trento, outstanding was also the performance of Giannelli, who scored 10 points in 5 sets with 5 blocks and 3 aces.
