Rome, 25 Aug. (LaPresse) – A solid Italian side, in complete control of the match, beat Slovakia 3–0 (25–19, 25–18, 25–20) to secure their fourth consecutive victory at the CEV Trendyol EuroVolley 2026, taking their tally to 12 points in the standings and retaining top spot in Pool D. At the Scandinavium, Julio Velasco’s Azzurre cemented their success with a high-quality performance, built on effective play across all the fundamentals and the ability to dictate the pace and shape of the match, even when Slovakia began to play their best volleyball. Italy found answers in every area of the court, thanks to Orro’s excellent distribution of play and the synergy between blocking and defence, which allowed Velasco’s team to rebuild their play more effectively. Italy’s record in Pool D therefore remains flawless: four victories, all 3-0, and not a single set lost. Tomorrow at the Scandinavium, the Azzurre will take to the court again against France in a match that will decide first place in the group.
