Lube Banca Macerata - Lokomotiv Novosibirsk (full match)

Lube Banca Macerata overcame the defending champions, Lokomotiv Novosibirsk, in tie-break taking the leadership in "the group of death" (group E) in the Champions League 2013/14. The Italian team owes the win to Bartosz Kurek, who collected almost 50% of points scored by Lube Banca in the decisive set. Polish wing-spiker played great match. He scored 21 points in that game, including 58% in attack (19 spikes, 1 ace, 1 block). Macerata is on 1st place in ranking (3 victories, only 2 sets lost). "We are very happy for the victory as the result confirmed us as the leaders of the group” said Italian coach Alberto Giuliani. "Champions League is the primary target of our club this season, so we’re trying to do our best in every match to qualify to the Playoffs from this tough group F. But nothing is decided yet, especially because we have to play two times away in Russia".
