Lavia on "RTTR Volley": "Saturday on court in Monza to get back to winning ways"

Itas Trentino men's setter Daniele Lavia was among the main protagonists of the weekly episode of "RTTR Volley". Here are some of the most interesting passages from his interview conducted by Sara Ravanelli.

ITALIAN CUP. "Inevitably the thought in the last two days, which have been of rest, has often gone to the Italian Cup semi final lost Saturday afternoon against Monza in Bologna. It was an appointment we cared so much about, we wanted to bring home the result but unfortunately it did not go as we hoped. We had too many ups and downs, starting with the handbrake pulled, showing little lucidity and committing too many errors, especially in the final of the fourth set. We were not able to express the volleyball we have often played during this first part of the season, but we did not underestimate the opponent, also because Mint is a very strong team and proved it not only in Bologna but also in the championship. They defended a lot and managed to take away our confidence. We were lacking, especially in the tie break and especially in serving".

HIGH LEVEL. "Like every season, the championship rises in level and that is the case in this edition as well. It is increasingly difficult to get the better of any team and this is unique to the SuperLega. I believe that the step forward the tournament has made in recent months from this point of view has been very important indeed".

MONZA. "On Saturday we return to the court, facing the same opponent as the previous weekend. We are charged up and determined to turn the page, and we will try to do so by finding even more cohesion and humility, the weapons we need to immediately regain success and continue our championship run".

FINAL SEASON. "I hope the season can give us a similar finish to the previous one, because there are still two important objectives to reach: Champions League and Scudetto, which without a shadow of a doubt represent the most coveted trophies of the entire year".

CONTRACT RENEWAL. "I've always said it: I feel good in Trento, I like the environment, the company organization and the group that has been created over the years. I had no reason to change the air. I'm happy to have renewed my agreement with the club".
