Overview
Reigning #CLVolleyM champions Cucine Lube CIVITANOVA started their campaign with win over their long-time domestic rival from Perugia being now hungry for more success, while TOURS VB play their first game totally eager to use a home court advantage. These teams have never met on the court before, however CIVITANOVA never lost to any French team at the European stage (defeating Paris Volley in a pool phase of the #CLVolleyM 2015, and Tourcoing Lille Metropole in semifinal of #CEVCupM 2006). Head coach of TOURS VB Hubert Henno will lead he French team in the game against his former club, as he was a player of Cucine Lube from 2012 to 2015, winning the Italian championships in 2014.
Hubert Henno, head coach of TOURS VB: "It's a pity that we play against two the best European teams behind closed doors, it was an opportunity to see the best players in the world play in Grenon Arena. The teams of Lube and Perugia are on a very high level, so it's a pleasure to play against them and to challenge them."
Osmany Juantorena, player of Cucine Lube CIVITANOVA: "In the yesterday’s match against Perugia we scored a very important victory performing a great volleyball, and in the second match against TOURS we therefore aim to confirm ourselves. We don't know the French team very well, so it will be essential to approach the match in the right way, focusing exclusively on what we have to do in our part of the court".

Yoandy Leal"It was important to start this European campaign on the right foot, and I think that closing this first bubble with the lead in the standings and 9 points out of 3 games satisfies our expectations in the best way, as at the same time rewards the hard work that we’ve done to prepare us for this event. After the strong battle with PERUGIA it was not easy to maintain concentration and perform a high-level volleyball also against Tours. We succeeded."

Ferdinando De Giorgi“We are clearly very satisfied, because we have closed two difficult games by winning all the points at stake, and it was very important to start well in this very difficult competition, especially in a tough group like ours. My guys did a very good job."

Zeljko Coric"It was complicated, but it was a pleasure for us to play with this team. I think we have shown that we are able to play on high level."
