Messina. The Akademia Città di Messina takes full spoils against Bologna at the “PalaRescifina” and scores their third victory in as many matches, the second in a row with full points and this time without giving up even a set. Payne hits again (16 pts) but it’s the whole team that runs at a good pace between attack and defense. The Emilians fought but in the hot phases it was Messina who made the difference.
