The new year for Hermaea Olbia opens as the old one ended: with a defeat. This time, however, more bitter. If at the home of the league leaders Busto Arsizio, before the break, it could be expected, yesterday at the GeoPalace in the direct clash with Altafratte Padova, Dino Guadalupi's team came close to victory, on 2-0 and 27-26 in the third set, to then lose in the tie-break with partial scores 25-21, 28-26, 27-29, 17-25, 11-15.
“We started well, especially in the break phase, which is essential for us, we had channeled it well. Too bad about the third set, for me the most beautiful set of the match”, regrets Guadalupi. “In the fourth and fifth we lost our certainties, they were better in defense, in service and in attack. We have to “complicate our lives” in training to be ready for days like these, in which the matches change”, adds the coach of the Gallura team, who in the next round, valid for the 6th day of the return of the regular season of the A2 women's volleyball, will go to visit Trasporti Bressan Offanengo to try to close the gap on the promotion pool, 3 points away.
