Plotnitsky questionable for Coppa Italia

During the match between Perugia and Trento, in the most tense moments of the tie-break, Oleh Plotnytskyi felt a sudden pain in the back of his right thigh during an attack, which forced him to leave the court. Initial medical examinations did not bode well, and later the player underwent an initial MRI, which showed damage to the right biceps femoris. The club's medical and physiotherapeutic team at this stage considers it premature to make accurate predictions about the recovery time. It will be better determined and announced after the clinical and instrumental examinations that the player will undergo in the next 48/72 hours, which will allow for a more precise quantitative assessment of the condition. In the meantime, a specialized therapeutic program has already been initiated. This casts doubt on the participation of the outside hitter in the upcoming Italian Cup final tournament next week in Bologna.
As for Yuki Ishikawa, examinations have only shown problems related to muscle cramps, according to media reports from Italy.
