Bertram Tortona vs Orlandina Capo d'Orlando

It's the eve of the season for Bertram Derthona, playing against Benfapp Capo d'Orlando in the 13th matchday of the West Group of the Serie A2 Old Wild West championship. The Bianconeri are coming off a win against Legnano, a match that showed "some positive signs, but they came after two negative matches like those against Agrigento and Biella. At this point in the season ," says coach Ramondino, " we need to broaden our focus beyond a single performance, because it's important to seek consistency. Therefore, it's important to contextualize the emotional aspect and work on the technical one."

The search for consistency is one of the key focuses of the Juventus coach's work, who maintains that "it's not easy to find the right balance between players who can be more or less prominent. Our team is made up of players of a good level for the championship, and it's our job to try to integrate players who need to touch the ball more often to be effective with others who can contribute even without necessarily having the ball in hand ."

The Bianconeri's next opponent, as mentioned, is Benfapp Capo d'Orlando, a team that "prefers to play a high number of possessions: it's no coincidence that they are one of the best attacks in the league, averaging nearly 90 points. In Triche, Parks, and Bruttini ," coach Ramondino continues, " they have three players who are good at taking and capitalizing on leads with great effectiveness. Their ranking reflects what they have shown in these first months of the season, because they have found the right balance and are supported by the results on the field . "

Among the keys to the match against the Sicilian team, the Juventus coach identifies ʺour ability to make progress from an offensive point of view, in particular regarding the fluidity of the game, while in defence it will be important to be consistent against their talented players, trying to mess up their solutions and make them less effectiveʺ.

Mirza Alibegovic said: "We had the strength to unite, to stay together and to work as a team in the match against Legnano, forgetting the previous defeats. We will have to gradually integrate even more. Capo d'Orlando has a well-defined hierarchies, they know which players should shoot: the two Americans and Bruttini are the most representative athletes. Triche and Parks, in particular, have great talent and offensive ability. The key will be to limit them also through attack, because they average a lot of minutes per game, so our goal must be to prevent them from playing a high-level game on both ends of the court ."
