The subtle shade to Lanza is killing me. 
Hate all you want on Gino but he's a great and funny character on and off the volleyball scene.

Giannelli's playing his best volleyball for more than two weeks since the 2017 superlega semifinal versus Perugia. It helps that he is surrounded with a more talented cast than the last season so the pressure is lesser on him.

Trento's block and defense is too good for Milano tonight.
-
Sbertoli needs to work on his setting form as the way he raises the ball for Abdel-Aziz is too predictable.
It reminds me a bit of Pankova.
Latina is leading Civitanova.

5-8 ranking battle for Coppa Italia qualification is becoming interesting.

Let's see if Ravenna can make something happen.
Edit: Nope Trento wins the match.

Congrats to Padova.
-
Unless something drastic happens, Lube will definitely lose to Milano.
-
Two of the big four of Superlega already dropped two sets. Trento sharing a set with Ravenna. Modena with tiebreak victory vs Siena yesterday.
-
Padova is destroying Perugia.
-
Vettori at pos 4 is killing Trento.
-
Milano and Padova takes the first set from Lube and Perugia.
Juantorena scored nothing. Don't know what happened yet as I am only browsing the livescore page of lvc.
-
So Russell plays but still clearly not at his best.
Ravenna is having problems with their reception, serve faults and pos 4/pipe offense perhaps due to the length of Trento blockers and their undersized OH. So far it's Rychlicki vs Trento for the first set.

A random russian girl on the street can probably contribute more than Malygina right now.
-
Hearing speculations about Kaziyski move to Trento but take that with a grain of salt.
I'm not sure if they can afford him but it would be nice to see him back and Trento's having a problem with the third OH with van Garderen or Cavuto, maybe they can get some help from the bulgarian.
-
I don't know if Russell can play in the next matches. Lorenzetti rested him for CEV cup and I think van Garderen will be the starter until he recovers from his physical problem after the world club championship.

Sada Cruzeiro coming up with the Volleyball World's shadiest instagram post of the year before it ends.
Don't nobody dare tell me that a defeated-looking Simon in the background is just a coincidence because I swear...

I wonder which is the worst statistics for Lube with Leal - no of points lost in reception, or number of points lost with good reception where he cannot kill the ball? And if so, how much of it is to do with Leal? And how does that compare with Juantoerana's stats? It seems like Leal has struggled to adapt to much faster playing conditions, and more organised blocking- and he needs to find his way in this new system. It may have been better for him to go to a team with more unfamiliar people...

Congrats Trento!! They showed a really good game, they played as a team. They will grow even more going on with the season, especially if they will gain power from the OPPs.
Great Giannelli
Vettori still annoys me but Kovacevic-Russell carried his butt all season long I bet they can't even be mad at him anymore that they have to make even less mistakes to compensate for his errors. He's like the zombies in a post-apocalyptic world that his teammates have to deal with in order to survive.
I actually like Nelli is not titular so when Vettori screws himself, there's an improvement when he comes in as substitute. -
Sokolov looks satisfied with the award despite losing 6 finals in a row .
This is the part I don’t like about him.
He looks disappointed when he was with his group during the awarding of medals.
