Nelli: “The World Cup has been an important experience, but now I’m thinking about..."

The will to experience a big season with the shirt of Itas Trentino can be also measured in this way: less than 24 hours after the last match of the 2018 World Cup (played on Friday night in Torino and won by Italy against Poland 3-2), Gabriele Nelli already was at the BLM Group Arena in Trento. On Saturday afternoon, during the last session of the sixth week of preparation, although the Tuscan opposite spiker wasn’t supposed to train, he came by to greet his teammates that he will join in a couple of days. “The summer lived with the national team has been tough, besides the final result that doesn’t fully satisfy us, however we worked a lot and well – he explained at Trentino Volley Tv -. I’m happy that the general public carefully followed us, anyway we have been able to let a lot of people know volleyball and we should be proud of this, also because it wasn’t so easy. The goal is to do something more for our movement, the highest peak of my tournament has for sure been the match won against The Netherlands last Sunday, where I had the opportunity to play as a first team player and have a role in a victory that is rewarding for me, because I always gave my best. Physical exhaustion? I don’t feel it, someday I could feel it more on a mental level but now I’m at my 100% and I really want to be back on field as a Trentino Volley player. On Saturday we play the semifinal of Supercoppa in Perugia and we want to immediately obtain a big result”.
