Glenn Miller Cosey in Rome is..."In The Mood"

Glenn Miller Cosey was extraordinary on Sunday afternoon in Rome. His offensive performance, with 36 points and 6 assists for his teammates, led Derthona to an engaging and extremely valuable success against one of the fittest opponents in the championship. During the week we created a mix of his best actions linking it to the famous "In the Mood" by the famous Glenn Miller, playing on the assonance between the names of the artist and our point guard.

We then exchanged a few words with Glenn about his match and his Roman “mood”: “I was extremely motivated. We knew that Rome was an important match for our progress in the championship because we were facing a team of similar value to ours, so I tried to be aggressive from the start to take the advantage and maintain it until the end."
How do you find yourself in this role as a leader for the team?

“I'm happy because the climate in the team is very good. We often laugh, we joke, we get along well and this can also be seen on the pitch, where we all try to help each other and do everything needed to win matches, and this is also why I don't feel different from my other teammates. In the last few games we have managed to raise the intensity of our game, to be tougher and more concentrated. Of course, we still make a few too many mistakes, but by playing in this way the opportunities to win games increase..."

They also rise when the "mood" of Glenn Miller Cosey makes baskets like the one that decided the match in Rome at 50" at the end. A shot born from instinct..
“I had good feelings right from the tap-off and tried to take the shots I felt I could score, without forcing. At that moment I saw a hesitation in the defense and it was instinctive for me to take a shot that Roma were no longer able to respond to."

Your night ended with the Superbowl…who were you rooting for?

“Actually, for neither team. I was in front of the television as a football fan, like so many others around the world, and I'm happy that the match is extraordinary. Tom Brady was truly incredible!”
