Castellana Grotte plays as hard as they can in the fourth set, keeping with stokes and counter-attack: the team from Puglia begins with 2-4 and then 4-9 overwhelming guests even on the block. Lorenzetti interruptes the game and changes Russell instead of Cavuto siding the main formation. Itas Trentino comes up to 8-11, before detaches the score (9-14, 9-19) thanks to the blocks of Zingel, determined at the net. On 10-20, Itas Tentino still has big pride thanks to the changes proposed by Lorenzetti, who deploys Daldello, Nelli and Codarin. Trento goes up to 18-22, before gives in 19-25 because of another pair of mistakes. In the tie break, Russell immediately makes the difference with his aces 4-0, helped by the block of Candellaro.
