Great job BBs!
Despite losing more than half of its superstar players (Kaziyski, Raphael, Juantorena & Djuric), Trentino Volley won the 2013 Supercoppa yesterday in front of almost 3,000 fans. Trentino dominated the match and won it in straight sets versus the star studded Macerata (Zaytsev, Parodi, Podrscanin & Kurek).
Diatec Trentino 3-0 Cucine Lube Banca Marche Macerata (25-23, 25-23, 25-21)
Trentino: Birarelli 5, Ferreira 8, Suxho 1, Lanza 8, Sokolov 17, Colaci (L), Burgsthaler 7. Macerata: Parodi 2, Zaytsev 15, Stankovic 5, Kovar 2, Kurek 12, Baranowicz, Podrascanin 8, Henno (L), Paparoni (L)
Match MVP: Donald Suxho
Side Thoughts…
Macerata is definitely the heavy favorite to dominate the Italian League this season but Trentino is going to be THAT team that will create a lot of surprises this season. Trentino has one of the world’s best opposite hitters, Sokolov, together with the best Italian middle blocker, Birarelli, and a couple of foreign stars like Donald Suxho and Sebastian Sole.
There are a lot of good teams in the Serie A this year and it still remains as one of the top leagues in the world for fans to follow and closely monitor.
Congrats Trentino!
