Italy beat Argentina 3-0 in a match of the second phase of the Women's Volleyball World Cup, gaining the certainty of passing to the quarter-finals of the tournament.
The blue, in the seventh victory out of eight matches played, prevailed on the South Americans with a score of 25-19, 25-18, 25-17.
A long tournament, the one in progress in Holland and Poland, which especially now requires those who want to get to the bottom, like the European champions, quality of play but also abundant reserves of energy.
And it is precisely on this key that the Italian coach, Davide Mazzanti, insists.
On the rest day granted after the convincing victory over Japan in Rotterdam, and in view of the double engagement with the South Americans first and then China, the coach underlined that "we will simply have to play as we know and want, but it will be important to manage the team from physical point of view, because now the calendar does not facilitate recovery - explains Mazzanti -. So you need to get the result but also manage the energies of the girls and the next two games will be intense and will be felt.
I think the level still needs to improve, growth during the first phase was perhaps slower than what we had in mind and we need to improve this second round.
In a World Cup, the important matches are played on the feelings of the girls on the pitch and the next two challenges will be of fundamental importance to find them ".
