“I'm marking my 600th appearance in Italy, not bad! I'm proud, because in my life I've achieved the dream of asserting myself in the most important tournament in the world. Now I prefer to think about Lube and the approach we'll have in the second game with Trento. We intend to do something more than we did on Sunday. We've recovered our energy after the long series with Perugia and we want to restore the balance in the final with Trento in front of our fans, our extra player. We have to take advantage of the opportunity to play for the title. The approach must be gritty, at a higher level. It will be essential to hit well like we did in Perugia. We are focused and ready for the match!” Marko Podrascanin, middle blocker of Cucine Lube Civitanova
“In game one, we played at a very high level and we also took advantage of our freshness compared to Civitanova, which was coming off a five-match semifinal, which finished in Perugia only three days earlier. However, we know perfectly well that Cucine Lube is a tough team, which never gives up, and therefore we expect an even more difficult second challenge, because we will be playing away. The right approach will be needed. We are working hard to live this final series to the fullest and we have started on the right foot.” Daniele Lavia, outside hitter of Itas Trentino Trento
