The last match of the year at Banca Macerata Forum brought smiles to the guests from Smartsystem Fano, who made a real hit in the fourteenth round of the men's A2 Credem Banca championship, winning the match 2-3 after a merciless battle. The fatal start of the match for Macerata, despite a strong response from the hosts, led to a loss after more than two hours and twenty minutes of play against the generally more composed Smartsystem. A two-faced match for the red-and-whites, who still took one point for the standings, where they are in 12th position, realizing the need for a change of pace, especially given the results of other matches.
The MVP was Fano's setter Coscione, who became a perfect conductor for the team.National player Samuil Valchinov played another strong match, finishing with 18 points.Former Dutch international Klapwijk scored 26 points, but it was not enough for the hosts to win.
