One tie-break loss so far in Turkey and a 3-1 win over Novosibirsk for Giuliani’s team, who could take the top spot of the group with a victory as the Turkish were beaten by the Russians yesterday.
“Our target in this Main Phase is to qualify and finish first of the group – admitted middle blocker Dragan Stankovic – And thanks to yesterday’s result, we have a great opportunity to do that. We can’t let this chance slip away, we have to win and take three points, and do the same again next week when we meet the Austrians at home”.
