Italy - Serie A1 2018/19

It seems that today is the day for underdogs.

Quote from crovolley

And Brescia beat Conegliano in tie brea 19:17.

Fabris finally played good, She scored 31 points but today that is not enough...

And Pomi is leading 2:0 against Busto !

When your main attacker plays so well and you still lose something is really bad in the team. Did they play bad in reception again?

Casalmaggiore-UYBA is a joke. Awful match.

And in another 5th set match, and also on over time, Chieri beat Club Italia 19-17.

I think it is the first win of Chiere, isnt it?

It is such a Pity Gyselle Silva is wasted in that team. I missed ther powerful serves and her little scream before doing it.

Their reception was far far better than before(with Sylla), but still far from perfect.

I don't know Brescia played good they had great defence and their MB were perfect, especially Washington. OH had very good reception overall they are the reason of this result. Conegliano played good, they can and need to play better for bigger things.

edit: Egonu scored 35 points and Novara still lose their match

I like A1 when it entered December, you just do not know what will happen. So many unexpected upsets.

I just love when this happen. To show that volley is a colective play more than "just one player" game. But i think Carlini never will never understand that, sadly

I will never understand their way of the game. Especially with such MB duo, i just can't...

Carlini? She just does what the coach wants from her. When Egonu was rested she played a very enjoyable game.

True.

very true. Keep saying this but it is true so I will say it again, Barbolini is a stupid coach. He shouldn’t be training a top team. It is management fault when you hire him and your team can’t win your target championships.

It makes sense

Casalmaggiore won 3-1 against UYBA. It was the first time I watched both the teams this season. All the players on court were so technically weak that Gennari and (expecially) Bosetti looked from another planet. I can't remember the last time Serie A1 was so awful: both teams were all about eight and physical power. Their passing was tragic.

Last season, or season before. I mean you repeat that everytime so I don’t know

This year Seria A is strongest league accept it. It is not about 2-3 teams it is about 13 teams.

Honestly, I think Casalmaggiore played better as in most matches, and Busto Arsizio seemd a little tired for me after that five setter against Novara...

Did you ever watch this league 15/10 years ago? You needed 4/5 world class players to win the champioship and sometimes it wasn't enough. I feel embarassed by the current level of the teams. Just tragic. Superlega is the only italian volleyball league worth watching. Sultanlar Ligi is still way better. Sad, but true. I can't stand some turkish users, but they are right claiming their league is the best.

Seems like Pietersen is finally getting back to her old level in Brescia after her break. Hope to see her in NT again next summer.

Welcome back, Smarzek

Nice result for Scandicci. It seems that Adenizia played well, but what about Stevanovic? Are the mbs taking turns playing bad yet or both step up their game today?
