Bertram Derthona towards the Knights Legnano. Coach Lorenzo Pansa: "We will have to be good at making up for the athletic gap with attention and hardness and at limiting their ability to play at a high pace"
It's Simecom Day for Bertram Derthona. The Bianconeri return to the PalaOltrepo' after their Italian Cup binge, facing the Knights Legnano in a match with a thousand meanings. First of all, for the ranking, given that the Lombards deservedly occupy second place in the rankings. Secondly, to celebrate Jesi's victory once again, with the Italian Cup on display at the entrance and on the pitch, and then with the awarding of the president Roberto Tava by the FIP Piedmont regional president Gianpaolo Mastromarco.
Everything will be celebrated by Simecom, a gas and energy sales company, which has supported Derthona's activity for over ten years - and will help make Sunday afternoon's match unforgettable with an unmissable gadget dedicated to the Juventus fans and with the presence of the cheerleaders of Ficec - Italian Cheerleading and Cheerdance Federation, to act as a splendid setting for the show on the pitch.
Thus coach Lorenzo Pansa: “Legnano is deservedly second in the standings thanks to its multi-year planning and an over the top period of form which has led them to a string of 5 victories in the last six races. They know how to bring out great quality, defensive solidity and the ability to play in the open field thanks also to the excellent athleticism of the players that make up the roster. We will have to be good at making up for the athletic gap with attention and hardness and at limiting their ability to play at a high pace."
The Juventus coach then wanted to focus on Legnano's roster: "They have a battery of wingers that guarantee great danger from the arc and great ability to be dangerous in all one-on-one situations while, among the big men, the athleticism of Pullazi and Mosley match Maiocco's quality and experience. In the first match after winning the Italian Cup it will be essential that it remains engraved in our minds how we reached this important goal without forgetting who we are and our common experience during these first three quarters of the championship."
