SuperLega, Itas Trentino outdistances also the third place: +3 on Civitanova

The Epiphany weekend absolutely is one to remember for the World Champion Itas Trentino. The results obtained between Saturday 5th and Sunday 6th January in the sixteenth round of regular season SuperLega Credem Banca 2018/19 not only have allowed Itas Trentino to take over, for the first time after 783 days of waiting, the first place in the ranking but also to outdistance the third place. In fact now, chasing Lorenzetti’s team there are Perugia with two points and Civitanova with three points; this evening Civitanova overcame (as a comeback) Verona only at the tie break during the match played at the Eurosuole Forum. Instead Modena won without any problems (3-0 against Ravenna), that has in this way closed the gap with the first three places in the ranking and is now at the fourth place with only one point from Lube that precedes it. Besides the next round, scheduled for the 12th and 13th January, will be characterized by the direct match between Perugia and Civitanova; Itas Trentino will play against Tonno Callipo in Vibo Valentia with the advantage of knowing already the result of the match between the second and the third team of the championship (that will face each other on Saturday evening) but will also watch with great interest the match between Milan and Modena: fifth against fourth at the Assago Forum.
