Italian powerhouse Numia Vero Volley Milano swept past Egypt's Zamalek Sporting Club 25-9, 25-13, 25-18 on Thursday, completing its matches in Pool A with two wins and one loss at the Federation of International Volleyball (FIVB) Women's Club World Championship in Hangzhou, China.

Paris Olympics MVP Paola Egonu, who celebrated her 26th birthday on Wednesday, only played in the first set against Zamalek and scored five points. Milano dominated from the start and easily took the opener 25-9.

In the second set, French outside hitter Helena Cazaute pounded down an unstoppable kill, before also serving up a pair of aces, en route to topping the charts with 13 points. Milano claimed the frame 25-13 when Zamalek's block went out of bounds.

The Italian club maintained its momentum in the third set, and on match point, opposite Radostina Marinova's hammer closed things out 25-18.

Milano currently sits second in the pool standings, and is mathematically guaranteed a spot in the semifinals, as the team can no longer be overtaken.
