Ukraine, Celestini:

(ANSA) – ROME, MAY 31 – Italy’s Volleyball Nations League path begins with a defeat. The girls of coach Davide Mazzanti gave way with the result of 3-0 (25-20; 25-19; 25-19) to the hosts of Turkey.

Italy will have a rest session tomorrow before returning to the field on Thursday 2 June against Belgium (6 pm).

“We should have played more courageously in some situations because both in defense and in reception they did very well – the words of coach Mazzanti – and in those situations we lost the chance to stay connected to the game. Then we also had too much at times. hurry in some moments and this did not allow us to keep pace with a Turkey that still played a great game in break point situations. Tomorrow we will not play and we will be able to work on some situations that emerged today but then we will return to the field aware that especially in this first phase of the VNL we have to achieve a result. We already knew this before the defeat against Turkey and therefore we will continue to work with the same objectives “.
