Gaspari really lost 2 sets with Franklin and refused to bring Bosetti back in for 5th… or Weitzel.

I was in an out but I didn’t see Sarah do anything well and her blocking is so bad. Maybe she had good stats when I wasn’t watching but very eh. Also antropova gets blocked/block touched in big moments more than other top opposites
-
It is a friendly match. If Gaspari wanted to try all his players he did the right thing but if he wanted to win the match then he is the same man that made Milano a mess.

Novaraaa
Bernardi with the better subs today. Mayu as iconic as always but also transferring Igiede was a master move. I'm sure she would bench Baijens for the big matches if she somehow were to stay. They look good as a team, not depending too much on just 1 player.I'm glad Antropova finally has a capable teammate to share the load with in Skinner and even Weitzel (although she slowed down throughout the game)

-
Cambi is the weakest link of Novara so far. She is so messy and inaccurate but her saving point is that she has good middle connections.

I do enjoy her messy chaotic plays though, never a dull moment

-
I wonder how much Igiede's LOVB buyout would be
She was the most consistent American on the court.
-
Not sure what’s worse - that awful bright Mountain background or playing with those super bouncy molton balls that are very difficult to receive. Bosio is really struggling to connect with her pins. She is a very dramatic setter…
-
The point of Franklin being in a top team...

Italian teams are one gone dominant CL stage ones again.
So happy how good Novara and Scandicci looks. And Milano has history of demolishing Turkish club in CL.
Maybe this season they can top even amazing finish from last season. All Italian FinalFour. -

But I can’t wait for season to start especially CL

We are gone have finally interesting matches in early stage of competition. -
Got a chance to watch the Scandicci–Novara final today, and wow, no regrets – what a thriller!
Bernardi really surprised me with his subs, especially at opposite. Seeing how unstable Tolok was, he without doubts switched her out for Mims right in the middle of the first set. And then Novara, mainly thanks to Ishikawa, without their starting opposite (!)managed to turn the game around against the stronger team. wow!And in the fifth set Bernardi suddenly brings Tolok back in – she’d clearly calmed down after sitting out for three sets – and that gave them the edge they needed. I used to underestimate Bernardi, but not anymore.
This Italian league is looking like it’s going to be a wild ride.
-
my Novara...I like so much Tolok
-
Vallefoglia is losing to Consolini lmao mess
-
Straube with Ortolani and Parini? is doing amazing btw

It's Kochurina and Straube that's pairing perfectly. Kochurina was very sluggish during the match with Scandicci but she looks a lot lighter on her feet now
-
Omoruyi is a sloppy wreck as usual can't do anything right
-
Bracchi... how is she in the NT
She ruined the 2nd set and the coach won't yank her

if they're sticking to shorties they should've gotten wada instead of bracchi
