In the 18th round of the 2021/2022 Italian Women's Volleyball Serie A, the leader Conegliano unexpectedly won first and then lost, and finally lost 1-3 (25-23/20-25/25-27/13-25) to Monza and swallowed the second league defeat this season after a 3-0 loss to Fiorentina! In this game, Egnu scored 28 points, but unfortunately none of his teammates scored in double figures, the American main attack Courtney did not score in 10 deductions, and the opponent Monza had 3 people score in double figures, namely Styshak 23 points, Davis Kiba 16 points and Rettek 15 points.
Conegliano has been the hegemon of the Serie A for nearly three seasons, and they have also won the Club World Cup, the Champions League and Serie A and the Italian Cup in their heyday, and so far this season, they have encountered strong resistance from the Turkish Super League leader Wakif Bank on the way to the Champions League, and finally lost 2-3 in the final. Coone remained a standout in Serie A, having maintained a very strong momentum in addition to losing to Fiorentina due to too many injuries.
Egnu, Coné's top scorer, would not have the same advantage in Serie A as he would have this season, exacerbating the rivalry with Novara, Monza, Scandic and Busto Aszio if he moved to Vakifbank next season. In this game, Egnu still spared no effort to attack and score, 23 of 48 dunks, 7 turnovers 0 blocks, 3 shots and 2 blocks to achieve 28 points, although the mistakes were a bit more, but the opponent was very difficult for her to block, not a single ball was blocked, Egnu's offensive success rate was close to 50%.
However, Egnu's teammates were weak, and no one scored in double figures: Italy's national vice-attack veteran Frit scored the second-highest 7 points in the team (5 of 12, 1 turnover, 4 blocks, 1 block and 1 shot) Frie is 31 years old this year, and her height is less than 190, but her rhythm of blocking is more handy, the attack is fast, and she is expected to continue to enter the Italian national team; Bulgaria's deputy attack Ruceva scored 6 points (6 of 13, 1 blocked) The two main attacks did not play well, and plummer of the United States played 6 of 15. 3 turnovers 2 were blocked and only scored 6 points, substitute Serra 17 dunks 4 shots, 4 mistakes 1 blocked, 1 block only 5 points into the account, the starting main attack of the United States Courtney 10 deducted 0 shots, 1 turnover 1 blocked 0 points was replaced by Sierra.
The number one scorer for The Monza club is still Poland's 21-year-old receiver Styšák, who scored 23 points (20 of 38 dunks, 2 turnovers, 4 blocks, 3 shots and 0 blocks) Although the score is slightly inferior to Egnu, the success rate of the attack is higher than that of the opponent, and the Polish women's volleyball team is expected to establish a new lineup with Styşák as the core of the attack under the leadership of Ravalini. Another American college player, Reitke, played a powerful secondary attack, scoring 15 points with 15 dunks, 10 of 10, 1 turnover, 3 blocks and 2 shots, and Daviskiba scored 16 points.
Although the match did not affect the position of Conegliano's leader, they obviously lacked stamina, the players were more tired in continuous combat, and the whole team was injured more, and it was very difficult to meet the top opponent Monza.
