Positive scrimmage for Bertram Derthona, who offers convincing ideas and positive sensations at the end of the four intense quarters played in the torrid Codogno Campus against Ucc Piacenza. The Bianconeri, who compared to Saturday's match in Salice d'Ulzio were able to welcome the debut of Melvin Johnson, won the first three quarters of a match which saw the score reset to zero at the end of each half, losing the last period for a spell from Sanguinetti a few seconds before the last siren.
Positive signals come from all the players available to Pansa: the first period is opened by an excellent Garri before being closed by Radonjic's basket from midfield which makes it 14-18; in the second half we see the first points from Melvin Johnson, protagonist together with an excellent Sorokas, while in the third quarter it is Spanghero, Stefanelli and Quaglia who keep the black and white flag high.
Thus coach Pansa at the end of the scrimmage: “Great steps forward in terms of attitude and intensity expressed on the pitch. In attack we showed greater clarity in collaboration, taking the steps forward that we had asked the team to do in recent days."
