The good indications continue for Bertram Derthona, who in the 2nd Memorial 'Gianluca Bottacin' against a very high level opponent such as the Italian champions EA7 Emporio Armani Milano, plays three quarters on equal terms against the team coached by Ettore Messina . The Bianconeri's next match will be on Saturday 9 September at 20pm at the PalaEnergica Paolo Ferraris against Dolomiti Energia Trentino, valid for the 1st 'Paolo Filippi' Memorial. The proceeds of the evening will be donated to the Idea Association and Dream Angels Onlus.
At the start of the match, Milan extended the margin to over double figures by taking advantage of their shooting precision. Bertram, in the second half of the period, kept the distance unchanged: at the first siren the score was 35-19. Three baskets from outside in a row by Baldasso fuel the return of Derthona, who also increases their shots in defense. It is then Candi who extends the favorable moment for the Bianconeri, who end up trailing 52-44 at halftime.
Upon returning from the locker rooms, the team coached by Ramondino produced a great effort on both halves of the court to get back into contact, reaching -1 (66-65), before suffering a new opponent break - led by Mirotic - which was worth the 76-65 in the 30th minute. In the final period, Derthona narrowed its gap again and several times, showing good play both in attack and defense, but Milan prevailed 96-86.
