SuperLega, Itas Trentino wins in Piacenza and confirms the fourth place in the ranking

After Milan in Coppa Italia and Istanbul in Champions League, Itas Trentino scored another important away win, in this case in the regular season of SuperLega Credem Banca 2019/20. The yellow-blue team this evening conquered the PalaBanca in Piacenza, winning 3-1 against Gas Sales Piacenza. A result that allowed the team to consolidate its fourth place in the ranking, just on the eve of the match against Milan, which will be played at BLM Group Arena in three days, Wednesday, February 5. The return to the Emilian arena, often the protagonist of epic matches and three Scudetto finals, was propitious for the yellow-blue club, which surprisingly gave no signs of fatigue despite playing the fourth match of the last ten days. Lorenzetti's team was able to change pace already in the second half of the opening set and become more and more confident of their potential, showing a great mastery of defense and block (13 winning actions, six only by Lisinac) and a high-ball trio certainly positive, as shown by the 19 points of Vettori, the 15 of Cebulj (with 4 aces) and the 13 of Russell. However, also the middle-blockers contributed in an important way to the success: Candellaro with 75% in the first half and three blocks and Lisinac with 82%.
