"Berlin is a great team, and we must stay focused. We have a great desire to win, and we hope to reach the semi-final goal."

Jesus Herrera
Opposite of Sir Sicoma Monini PERUGIA

"We have to face the match against Berlin in the right way, also from a mental point of view. It's a difficult game, but it's normal because we're in the quarter-finals of the Champions League, and every match must be played at the top. It is extremely important for us to qualify for the semi-final; we must not leave out any detail and push from the first point"

Andrea Anastasi
Coach of Sir Sicoma Monini PERUGIA

"You can't simulate the quality of this opponent in practice. So you're meeting a level of volleyball you're not used to. Especially with their physicality, the Italians exert incredible pressure. We have a young team and can gain valuable experience in such challenges. We just want to play another good game. We can put Perugia under pressure with our serve and collect balls in block-defense. But we need to make more countable things out of it. That's the point where we can start and improve."

Ruben Schott
Outside Spiker of BERLIN Recycling Volleys

"We are facing the Men's Club World Championship's winners in Perugia. Playing against them again is an honor and a reward for our successful Champions League season. Of course, our chances have remained the same after the first leg. We're still the big underdogs and can enjoy this match from this position. They always say games are the best preparation. So there can't be a better preparation than the one against this opponent for our most important goal, the fight for the German championship."

General Manager of BERLIN Recycling Volleys

Sir Sicoma Monini PERUGIA v BERLIN Recycling Volleys

Article

In the Men’s Champions League competition, three Semi-Finalists are now known. Those are: JASTRZEBSKI Wegiel, Sir Sicoma Monini PERUGIA and Halkbank ANKARA.

It was a tough battle between Sir Sicoma Monini PERUGIA and BERLIN RECYCLING Volleys. PERUGIA have beaten BR Volleys 3-1 in the first leg of the Quarter-Final. And today history repeated itself. Italians had a better performance with 3-2 (24-26, 25-21, 22-25, 25-17, 15-13).

The first set was completely equal on both sides. They were playing point-by-point and had a cat-and-mouse type of play. With amazing rallies and blocks, you just couldn’t tell which one was a better team because they were fighting like lions. And the set score showed that: 24-26 for BR Volleys.

The second set started in the favor of the Germans but it didn’t take a long time for Perugia to get back in the game (10-10). They turned over the set to their advantage (15-11) and although BR Volleys got pretty close (17-17), the Italians managed to separate once again and locked the set with 25-21.

The third set was completely equal, to the first one. Only at the very end, there was some difference where a team from Germany managed to secure an important set win by 22-25. The fourth set was going in the favor of Perugia. It started off, again, pretty equally but Perugia took the matters into their own hands and separated once again from the Germans who were breathing down their neck. And they’ve managed to do so by 25-17.

The MVP was Oleh Plotnytskyi with 18 scored points, three aces and the 61 % of attack.

In Semi-Finals Halkbank will play against Jastrzębski and Perugia will play against the better in tomorrow's match between TRENTINO Itas and Grupa Azoty KĘDZIERZYN-KOŹLE.
