Itas Trentino regulates 3-1 the belgians of Leuven in the unofficial midweek test

Great applause and a warm audience took place for the first unofficial test of Itas Trentino 2019/20 at BLM Group Arena this evening. In front of around four hundred audience, the team trained by Angelo Lorenzetti still lacking the national teams (Giannelli also worked separately), showed us such good moments of playing volleyball e then it won the match 3-1 against the Belgian of Bdo Hassrode Leuven, the team who has been on tour in Italy during this week in order to prepare the debut in the national league. Actually, the result could be read as a 3-0, but at the end of the match the two team gave birth to a further partial, won in that case by the guests.
One more time the opposite Luca Vettori, best scorer with 23 points, two aces and 51% in attack, and the spiker Sosa Sierra (19 with 54%, three blocks and one ace), but in general it was the whole team being excellent, particularly at the end of the first set, won after having always chased and having been under even 21-24.
