It's Final Eight. Bertram Yachts Tortona dominates the direct clash in the important areas of Group A against Pallacanestro Trieste and in the Rovereto stage they secure the pass to the final phase in Naples at the second attempt. From 10 to 12 April, the boys coached by Luca Ansaloni will also be there in the tournament that will decide the winner of the 2022/23 edition of the Next Gen Cup, the Legabasket event reserved for the Under 19s. Excellence of the sixteen Serie A clubs. The young Bianconeri they ensured the mathematical certainty of entry into the fateful top four in the group standings with two rounds to spare and they did so with a dominated match against the Giuliani, who before the match shared second place with them in the company of Nutribullet Treviso . What made the difference was the 29-13 in the second quarter, with Bellinaso, Baldi and the rediscovered Ansevini digging the furrow, after Errica had already taken care of it at the start of the match (11 points in the initial ten minutes) and the activism within the two areas of Tandia to make the Tortona Lions take off better, making the +22 of the interval along a mountain too high for the opponents to climb, who never returned to the match.
Having purchased the ticket for the Neapolitan PalaBarbuto, in tomorrow's play-off against Treviso a good part of the possibility of finishing the group in second place behind the almost unattainable Carpegna Prosciutto Papalini Pesaro will be at stake and thus obtain a less complicated pairing in the quarter-final of the Final Eight. Tap-off against the Venetians at 13pm again at the PalaMarchetti in the Trentino city, live streaming on www.legabasket.it and Eleven Sports.
