Sport LISBOA e Benfica v Cucine Lube CIVITANOVA
Gianlorenzo Blengini“Tonight we set ourselves clear goals, after preparing to approach this match in the best possible way. The first achievement was to restart humbly after two consecutive defeats in the Italian League, thus rebuilding our certainties. Then, we strongly wanted to secure a 3-0 win and the first place in our Pool, with one more game yet to go. Both goals were well achieved, and now we look with confidence to the upcoming matches".
