Pro Recco blew Posillipo away. A great opening of the game put the European champions on the right track. Pro Recco had a 6:0 lead in the 9th minute and killed all suspense.

Anzio Waterpolis (former Latina Pallanuoto) returned to Serie A1 after 10 years. On Day 1 of the current championship, Anzio lost to Ortigia (9:17). Today, it won the first points after a narrow win over Quinto. Anzio won the first quarter (3:1), but Quinto produced a 4:0 series in the second period and earned a 5:3 lead. The hosts, led by 2011 World Champion Alex Giorgetti, equalized early in the third quarter (5:5). Niccolo Figari, who won two gold medals with Italy at the World Championships (2011 and 2019), gave the visitors a 6:5 advantage before the last break. Midway through the fourth period, Anzio built a two-goal advantage (9:7 and 10:8) and didn’t let Quinto level the score.

Catania earned the first points in the season by beating Salerno. The Sicilians secured a win with a 4:0 run in the fourth quarter. Before the final period, the teams were tied at 9:9. Early in the fourth period, Gluhaic gave Salerno a 10:9 lead. The hosts responded with four goals in a row and went to 13:10. After that, Salerno couldn’t come back.

Lazio kept up with Ortigia for three quarters, but it failed to make a surprise. Ortigia led 4:1 after the first quarter, but Lazio started coming back after the first break. In the third period, the hosts went in front (6:5 and 7:6). Just three seconds before the last break, Gallo converted a man-up for 7:7. Ortigia dominated in the fourth quarter and scored five unanswered goals to secure a comfortable 12:7 victory.

Trieste defeated Roma by three goals, but the game was open until the very end. Triste had a 3:2 advantage at halftime. Deep into the third period, Roma earned a 2-goal advantage (7:5). The hosts equalized with two goals in the last 110 seconds of this period, while Bini put Trieste in front after 59 seconds of play in the fourth period.
