Excellent proof of Bertram, who still without Ndoja, plays a great game in 4th Ghisolfi Memorial – Audi Zentrum Alessandria Cup disputed against Legnano, the team's last pre-season friendly coach Pansa.
The start of the match was characterized by the great balance and intensity displayed by the two teams, who sought good fluidity in their offensive solutions: the baskets of an inspired Raffa - and of London - gave Legnano the advantage at the end of the first ten minutes of game (29-25).
Even in the second quarter, coach Sacco's team maintains its margin - built thanks to good three-point shooting percentages - and Corti's triple is worth the first double-digit lead (47-36 at 18') for Legnano during the competition.
After the time-out called by coach Pansa, the Bianconeri increased the defensive pressure, producing an 11-0 run, closed by Gergati's basket on the counterattack: at half-time the score was perfectly tied (47-47).
Upon returning from the changing rooms, Bertram's great growth in defense lowers Legnano's percentages and, combined with quality offensive solutions, leads Derthona to find a double-digit lead after Alibegovic's triple (64-53 in the 25th minute).
In the final minutes of the set, coach Sacco's team gets closer in score: at the end of the third quarter the Bianconeri lead 68-64.
The great balance between the two teams also continues in the last quarter: Alibegovic's baskets bring Bertram back ahead after Legnano had found parity at 73 in the 35th minute.
After another reaction from coach Sacco's team, it is Derthona's defensive plays that make the difference: the Bianconeri win the IV Memorial Ghisolfi for 91-83.
The last friendly scheduled before the official commitments of the season will be Ghisolfi Memorial, now in its fourth edition. From the match that will be played on Saturday in Tortona, coach Pansa expects to ˝to have confirmation of the progress shown in the Parma tournament, where we played both the semi-final and the final with great energy against Varese. This is the main objective of the match, in addition to seeing steps forward at a tactical level in both attack and defense. We hope to be able to field Gabriele Spizzichini for a few minutes in order to give him a run-in ahead of the Super Cup˝.
At the end of the Ghisolfi Memorial, it will already be time for Bertram to concentrate in view of the Super Cup scheduled in Bologna on Friday 28th and Saturday 29th September. In addition to the Bianconeri, Treviso, Fortitudo Bologna and Casale Monferrato will take to the field, teams that ˝they excelled, for different reasons, last season. For this reason the Super Cup will be very stimulating, even if – says Pansa – It arrives at a particular moment in the season: I don't think it will have an absolute impact on the progress of the championship. However, they will be two good matches to play against strong teams: we will have to have the ambition to obtain the best possible result and also the coldness to see the commitment as a step towards the championship˝.
A tournament, that of A2, which promises to be very competitive: with the increased number of promotions and relegations ˝everything changes compared to before because every match will be played as if it were a final. There are many teams – continues Pansa – who have invested resources and ideas in this championship, I am convinced that we will see great balance in the West Group. I believe that, in this year, consistency can seriously make the difference˝.
