Romeo Sorrento recorded a third consecutive success in the Serie A2 championship, after dramatically winning 3:2 as a guest against Emma Villas Siena 25:19, 25:22, 20:25, 26:28, 15:13. A match that started difficult for Sorrento turned into a true thriller and a demonstration of character from the team.

Preslav Petkov stable in key moments

Bulgarian international Preslav Petkov took part in the first two sets and returned to the court in the tie-break. He finished the match with 3 points, 40% attacking efficiency, 1 block, and an overall coefficient of -1, but most importantly with a contribution in moments when the match was finely balanced.

Petkov once again shows that he has a role in the team's rotation, and his presence in the tie-break underlined the coaching staff's trust in him, especially in decisive rallies.

Leaders of success Baldi, Patriarca, and Pol

For the winners, Baldi was the top scorer with 16 points, while Stefano Patriarca, well-known to Bulgarian fans from his season with DEYA Burgas in 2022/23, added 13 points, demonstrating experience and stability. Pol, with 19 points, was the other driving force behind the comeback.

On the other side, the hosts failed to find someone to lead the team none of Siena's volleyball players reached 10 points, which clearly highlighted the difference in attacking power between the two squads.

Three consecutive successes and a climb in the standings

After their third consecutive victory, Sorrento now has 9 points and has settled into eighth position in the table. The team is starting to find rhythm and confidence, and successes in contested matches like this one will be crucial for their ambitions this season.

Bulgarian derby on November 30
