Matteo Trentin took an impressive victory on the second stage of the Tour of Luxembourg. It was a close call between Trentin and Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl duo Florian Sénéchal and Davide Ballerini.

“It was a really nice final with a small climb and fast run through the city,” said the Team UAE Emirates rider. He continues to explain his plan for the race in brief, “We planned to do the climb with a hard but steady tempo with Majka and then focus on the lead out with Suter, Oliveira and our stagiaire Kluckers. The guys made a really good lead out, and we forced Quickstep to go early and so we were able to come around in the last meters."

Trentin jumped to the top position in GC following his victory, but the rider is not too focused on it. He will try for another win in the next stage.“The time-trial should decide the final GC, but we’re focused day by day and making another good stage tomorrow,” concluded Trentin.
