Italy - Superlega 2023/24

Monza is literally a mini Canadian team lol

I don't know if having Sbertoli back will be enough for Trento to join Perugia in the final. Right now Monza is playing amazing and since Maar has come back Trento is struggling enormously in breakpoint phase.

Trento is looking more and more like Perugia in the last couple of seasons. Dominant regular season and bad choking when it matters the most, I totally see them ending the season with zeru tituli. On the other hand, what a beauty from Monza! And what a gigantic difference from the women's team, coaching above all (brilliant moves from Eccheli). It's a shame they had a couple of injuries when they played for trophies, a cup would have been the classic icing on the cake.

I didn't expect the match to get so nail biting...

All that money wasted on the women's team, just to chase popularity with the sign of Egonu.

Monza did it again!

Eccheli took a gamble playing the last matches without a real opposite, but boy did it paid off. Having a healthy Maar back on the starting lineup was essential: he gave much more balance to the team and from there Trento's breakpoint phase dropped significantly. Loeppky and Takahashi were a constant pain in the neck for Trento and Cachopa did a very good job with distribution. I hope they won't pay too much this marathon on Thursday, they need all the intensity they could possibly get in order to stay in the match against Perugia.

congrats to Monza, such a shame that Takahashi was injured (or not 100%) in Coppa Italia and against Projekt Varsavia.

now i expect a solid 3-0, 1-3, 3-1 for Perugia to clinch easily the title.

Perugia is the favorite but Monza has the best team chemistry in the the whole club season. Hoping for an upset.

Fernando is the main reason that Monza could make into final this season. Sbertoli's unstablity was magnified in clutch time as always. He has two more weeks to adjust himself before the CL final.

Its sad that this Monza team will be very different in next season’s Champions League.

Great achievement by Monza despite they were 2-0 down after 2 games.

Sbertoli didn’t play

Sorry, Acquarone

Lorenzetti calls "Ran" as China man...Not surprised. I hope Ishikawa won't get the same treatment next year by him.

Monza won!!

Monza is really one of a kind team, they simply refuse to give up! Loeppky and Maar led by example once again, but everyone looked so focused and ready to battle. Surely facing a more tense and mistake prone Perugia helped, still you have to take the opportunity. Speaking of Perugia, the best news from today for them is having León back on a good form. I feel like Lorenzetti will need him in order to have the better of Monza.
