Last call Pescia. Mazzoni, in or out
The regular season in Serie C ends: Bottegone and Aglianese for salvation. Also tomorrow, game-2 playoffs in D men: a victory is needed for the 'bella'.

Pallavolo Delfino Pescia for the playoffs, Volley Aglianese and Progetto Volley Bottegone for salvation (even going through the possible playouts). Montebianco Volley Pieve a Nievole and Blu Volley Quarrata, on the other hand, can play without worries. A Saturday for strong hearts awaits us: among other things, everyone on the field at the same time, tomorrow starting at 18. Pescia, which is still tormented by the bad performance of Porcari, starts from third place in the standings: it must enter the first two to access the playoffs. It will play in Pontremoli, on a difficult field, that of Lunigiana. "We trained well, let's see: even if it will be difficult for Livorno and Porcari to stumble", they say from the Pescia home. Also wanting the 3 points are Aglianese coached by Marco Targioni, who will host Oasilido at the Pala Capitini in Agliana, and Bottegone by Michele Barbiero, busy between the friendly walls of the "King" against the already relegated Donoratico. Lineup problems for both: Agliana will be without Forasassi, Varani, Berti and Bora and has Randazzo in doubt, Bottegone is struggling with Guarducci's flu. Davide Torracchi's Blu Volley could do Pescia a big favor: it is playing against the league leaders Livorno at PalaMelo. The team is doing well, even if the Livorno girls are on another level. Finally, Pieve a Nievole will face Cascina at the Fanciullacci gym: it is a play-off for the fourth final position. Pieve would deserve it.
In Serie D, with the regular season over for Lavachiara Buggiano and Pistoia Volley La Fenice, respectively sixth and ninth in the women's tournament standings, game 2 of the men's playoffs awaits us: tomorrow Zona Mazzoni will be on stage, starting at 21 pm, at the PalaMattioli in Florence against Firenze Volley, who won the first leg in Pistoia with a comeback with a score of 3-2. To go to the tie-breaker, the Vigili del fuoco trained by Gabriele Fattorini must win: only in this way will they return to the Anna Frank gymnasium playing field on Sunday 18 May (at 18 pm). The red and whites were burned by the first match against the lilies: leading by 2 sets to 0, their lights went out and the Florentines celebrated. "First of all, some good news: we will be at full strength – they observe from the Pistoia firefighters environment –. We will try, giving it our all: the narrow defeat suffered in game 1 did not go down well". Our team's path was particular, starting strong and always in the first two places, then dropping to third place and finally climbing back to second on the penultimate day also thanks to the "kind concession" of Rosignano. A sign?
