SuperLega, Itas Trentino drags Cucine Lube to the tie break in the rescheduled round of 16

The make-up of the 16th round of the SuperLega Credem Banca regular season forced Itas Trentino to deal with its first defeat of the 2022 calendar year. After a January without any setbacks, this evening in Civitanova Marche the team had to give the way to Cucine Lube 2-3 in a match that displayed the league's second-ranked teams against each other.
The setback, which came at the end of a beautiful, balanced and spectacular match, saw Lorenzetti's team break the streak of seven consecutive victories, in the very venue where just over three months earlier they had won the Supercoppa Italiana 2021.
As on that occasion, Kaziyski and his teammates showed a generous, effective and, for long stretches, convincing volleyball, in front of a top level team like the Italian one. The Gialloblù showed their best performances in the first half of the match, when thanks to block, defense and counterattack they managed to go ahead 1-0 and then 2-1, before suffering the vehement comeback of the hosts who, however, had to sweat until 15-13 in the fifth set to get the better of them. In the comforting general test, to underline the 18 points of Kaziyski (with 49% in attack), the 17 of Michieletto, the 16 of Lavia (with 56%) and the consistent contribution of the central couple Podrascanin-Lisinac (23 points between the two, with 7 blocks, an ace and high percentages in the first half).
