The Italians showed they had totally forgotten the previous defeat and easily controlled the game.

The home guys fought bravely but looked nervous and could score only 18 points in the opening set.

Bre Banca dictated the tempo of the game also in set 2 and although Jihostroj stayed close, still a serving error of Stepan Smrcka sealed the final 25-22 for the Italians.
 
 

Jihostroj got a good contribution from setter Filip Habr and opposite Radek Motys who joined the game in the third set but even though they were cheered by 1’880 fans, still they could not stop the march of Italy’s heavyweight. 

We had taken our lesson from the previous match and deservedly won tonight” says CUNEO leader Wout Wijsmans.

We had to take many risks and this caused a flurry of errors” concludes head coach Jan Svoboda.
