Stokr

Trento is the new Italian Champion!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Itas Diatec Trentino 3-0 Bre Banca Lannutti Cuneo

(25-13;25-22;25-9)

Dominated match by Trento!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MVP of the game:Jan Stokr with 21 pts

Trento!!!! That game wasn't even fun to watch :(. Don't know what happened to Cuneo, only Wisjmans and Nikolov were playing good, and setting was horrible most of the game. Stokr really played the game of his life, think he should be MVP. Will they broadcast the individual awards ceremony on Eurosport 2?

Fantastic Match for Trento!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Top three:Stokr AND ALL OTHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

.........for Cuneo

Top three:The Captain , Henno , Nikolov
Last three:All other!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Trento played their best game at the end of the season. They won in great fashion, showing their best. Cuneo had players missing - Parodi, Volkov was not in his prime, other players out of shape - Wijsmans and players, squeezed like lemon - Nikolov. Trento finally defeated their hardest rival, I think that even with top form, Cuneo would have many problems in this game. Stokr showed today that he is first class player, with scoring hard points, serving, blocking and defending. Kaziyski with incredible reception - 71%/65% with half of all Cuneo serves, 60% in attack and with block and defense was second to MVP in this game. Raphael is incredible setter, incredible. Both Sala and Birarreli played top game, and this time Trento as a whole didn't play simple game, finally showing real inteligence. Stoychev and Serniotti did great, too. To make look injured ( therefore even more dangerous ) Cuneo so weak, you have to play extraordinary, and, boy, they did. They did!

Raylight ; don't forget Juantorena

Raylight ; don't forget Juantorena

Yes, he played very well today, a little quiet on attack, but with great serve, with good reception and some great defense

Well, that was embarrassing for Cuneo. I don't think that Kaziyski and Juantorena even managed to sweat their shirts

Some curiosity for the no italians:

1) in 2 days Stoycev will be with bulgarian national team. (In the final his choices in the starting positions of the players were always brilliant )
2) Stokr and Kazisky will remain in trento for sure.
3) Parodi, Grbic's brother, Bracci were in the audience
4) At the end of the match grbic and Juantorena huged.
5) At the end of the match many players of cuneo remained for answer the journalists question (Last year after losing the match all Trento Player disappear)
6) Luchetta said that Volkov sucks and he should come back to russia where teams who don't understand nothing of volleyball will pay him very good. (indeed he will play for Kazan)
7) Maybe Grbic will leave cuneo for Roma or Modena.
8 ) the audience was good, but there was not SOLD OUT
9) Who will remain in cuneo? XD

What's the point of this post

Quote from scarpetta

The problem for Cuneo is they can't serve

I disagree, the problem of cuneo was they didn't play at all!

I wont' listening any excuse like Parodi is injuerd, Wijsman played with painkillers, Nikolov was out of shape because he had to play too much, the players are exhausted etc. These problem were real, but the reason they was defeatd with this absurd result is they didn't fight at all (only at the biginning of the 2nd set)

btw, compliments to Trento, they played an almost perfect match!! amazing stokr, but i really appreciate also sala (in the first set he was amazing too!)

I'm sad the match wasn't more exciting..

That's the problem of single game final.

On one side you can have an upset, on the other side, if the best team is playing great right at the beginning, the underdog might never been able to get into it, which might lead to losing hope really quick.

The day after the V-Day....................

.........doubts and certainties for Cuneo and Trento!!!!

For Trento, about the team: all confirmed!!!!!............the only doubts concern: Sala, in the interview to end game has said, about his future, :''Vedremo''(maybe Roma or Cuneo?)....and............JUANTORENA........but it's just a rumour.http://www.volleywood.net/news…antorenas-return-to-cuba/

For Cuneo, about the team: none confirmed!!!!!!........Nikolov certainly will be gone, Volkov and Giuliani probably will be gone, Parodi maybe will be gone. The only certains arrive from Mastrangelo, Grbic, Henno and Wijsmans...........at least for now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is official!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nikolov go to Copra!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Giuliani and Parodi go to Macerata(Conte could replace Parodi)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For Modena..........arrived Matt Anderson from Vibo Valentia!!

There are also rumors about Grbic in Rome.

Nikolov officially in Piacenza, Giuliani officially in Macerata and Gulinelli officially in Cuneo.

Parodi (almost sure) in Macerata, seems not because he wanted it but due to economic accord between Lannutti and Giulianelli.

Cala from Verona to Tours (Fra)

several teams seem to be interested in Conte: Cuneo, Modena, Monza, Vibo.

The setter Luciano De Cecco go to Monza!!!!!!!
The setter Dragan Travica go to Macerata!!!!!
