12 blocks, 52% in attack, 14 aces and 72 points gained in total were enough for Vibo Valentia to win a victory over the favored team of coach Giuliani.
“The defeat in Vibo Valentia is undoubtedly a heavy blow, especially because we have wasted the opportunity to go alone at the top of standings”, said after the match the French libero of the white-reds, Jean-Francois Exiga. “But on the other hand it must be said that is not even to be considered seriously, because we have all the time and the means to recover. We knew that we would have faced a good team, it would be a tough game, and on the field the predictions have proved justified. Tonno Callipo has played a great game, they have done their best. But all the teams that we face up to always play at full blast against us, just because we are Lube Banca Macerata, a strong team that stimulates other teams.”
“We do not want to appeal to tired to justify this defeat, rather I would say simply that we have done wrong. It happens. The imperative now is to forget it quickly and focus immediately on the next game against Modena. We must win!”, concluded Exiga.
