DHL Modena
What happened on the court yesterday remains written in the history. During the whole season the team orchestrated by one of the best (like Italian newspapers describe him) italian coaches and president of AIAPAV (Assiciazione Italiana Allenatori di Pallavolo) Angelo Lorenzetti managed to overcome all the difficulties they have faced. Nemanja Petrić‘s injury, Matteo Piano‘s backpain followed by medical intervention, loosing CEV Champions League Best12 Round against Halkbank ANKARA were only some of the things that happened during the previous season. He prepared the team to resist, to suffer, to play… And they won. All the important games they won. All the important trophies this year.
Is there a better way than this for Bruno and Lucao to prepare for Rio2016 Olympic Games at home country? Real modern duo setter-middle blocker pushed in every game even when they were not in a mood (and that also happened during this season). Both showed that Brazil’s coach Rezende can count on them in difficult moments.
Cameroon-origin player from France… Controversial, unpredictable, difficult to control, etc. Many words were used this year about his behavior in and out of the court. But one thing he showed: he can be the one to decide, the one to change, the real MVP. And not only MVP of the final game, but the whole championship.

Sir Safety Conad PERUGIA? They did their best. Maybe they celebrated a little bit too much after the semifinals against Cucine Lube Banca Marche CIVITANOVA in regard to DHL MODENA Volley. Singing and celebration were supposed to wait for the last point of the last game.
Aleksandar Atanasijević, the Serbian bomber, was scoring 20+ points every game. Was it enough? Unfortunately no. He desperately needed help from somebody from his team. Middle blockers excluded. Slobodan Kovač changed a lot after substituting Daniel Castellani by putting USA National Team Aaron Joseph Russell to play in starting roster. Russell showed why he can be trusted for the difficult games but also paid a little due to lack of experience. In his age this could be accepted thinking of the future.
SIR Safety Perugia will have to learn from their mistakes which they made this season. And Modena Volley? Voices started already to speak about changes. But let them celebrate. They deserved it. They WON!
