Derthona: Buffo 11, Cremaschi 6, Paulinus 13, Ugolini 13, Dolcino, Lisini 15, Tchintcharauli 10, Moro 6. All. Talpo Ass. Gaudio
An important performance for the DNG team who, on the difficult Varese pitch, imposed their pace right from the start, reaching a double-digit lead thanks to Ugolini's initiatives. In the second half, Ugolini's injury shortened the rotations of coach Talpo's team, but the play of Moro and Tchintcharauli allowed the Bianconeri to maturely control their opponents' reaction: the final score was 70-74.

Seventh success in a row for the Bianconeri, who on the Legnano pitch found Cremaschi - well supported by Ugolini and Paulinus - the absolute protagonist of the match. The Lions took control of the match from the first quarter, thanks to the skilful direction of Buffo and the returning Barbieri, and controlled it until the final siren, winning 69-74. For Derthona the goal of the season finale must be to face the next matches with even greater awareness and determination.

Defeat for the Lions who, on the third day of the second phase of the championship, surrendered in San Mauro within the friendly walls of the PalaCamagna. After a balanced first half (26-28 at 20'), the guests produced the decisive break in the third half (partial score 8-24), decisively directing the match.

Derthona: Sacco 6, Gavio, Chiappini, Colombetti 26, Fiorucci 2, Vio 4, Curti, Orlando 4, Calù, Magrassi 21, Coffano 2, Angeleri 10. Coach De Ros
Solid match for the young Lions, opposed to a high level team like Moncalieri. The match flows in balance for its entire duration and, only towards the end, the guests find the plays that allow them to win 75-77. Worth noting are the good offensive performances of Colombetti and Magrassi, authors of 26 and 21 points respectively, and the defensive performances of Angeleri and Gavio, capable of capturing rebounds and recovering balls throughout the match.

Good match for the Bianconeri who, against the reigning regional champions, played the best first half of the season in terms of pace, spacing and shooting percentage, going into the break leading 42-33. In the second half the match was on a tightrope until three minutes before the siren when, thanks to Moro's exit due to five fouls and Lisini's injury, the guests took the upper hand thanks to the greater intensity put on the pitch. The final sees Piossasco win 64-73.

In injury time on the fourth day of the return match, Derthona played a good first quarter, remaining close to Rivoli in terms of the score (14-12 at 10'). Starting from the second half, however, the plays of Cortese (author of 25 points at the siren) dragged Conte Verde, who progressively extended up to 61-38 at the final siren.

Derthona: Cuscunà 4, Zacchè 16, Alimadhi, Giani, Magrassi 2, Ferrario, Bagnera, Gay 10, Battegazzore, Manazza, Giorgi 10. All. Degrada
Victory for the young Lions who, on the Rivalta pitch, after a balanced first half (closed with an 18-21 lead), extended their lead in the third quarter thanks to defensive growth and good offensive solutions. The double-digit margin accumulated (24-35 at 30') allows the Bianconeri to control the opponent's return: Derthona wins 37-42. Of note is Zacchè's best scoring performance of the season (16 points).
