Samuil Valchinov played very well, but Macerata lost their away match to Ravenna, where Manuel Zlatanov plays. After the impressive victory against Tinet Prata, Macerata expected more, but in the thirteenth round of the first half of the season in Serie A2 Credem Banca, the three points went to Consar Ravenna. The match was very even, in which the green and whites dominated the third set, but fell short at the end of the other sets due to small details that show why the team from Emilia-Romagna deserves its high position in the standings. The level in the third set was remarkable, but it was not enough to change the outcome of the match. The visitors from Macerata had two set points to reach a tie-break, which would have been deserved, but Fortuna favored the hosts. The next match is on Thursday in Pineto for the first round of the second half of the season. The MVP is Guzzo with 29 points.
The match began and ended with Sami Valchinov - the first point was an ace by the national player, the last one, unfortunately, was a block by Guzzo against him at 28:27 for Consar Ravenna, which ended the match.
Sami Valchinov finished the match with 17 points (3 blocks, 1 ace).A poor match for the otherwise productive Dutchman Klapwijk, only 5 points.
The match also marked the Bulgarian national player reaching 25 points from blocks since the beginning of the season.Manuel Zlatanov finished with 5 points.
