Towards Bergamo, coach Ramondino: ʺI missed the direct contact with the players and staff. Bergamo is a treacherous team
Twelfth day of the first round for Bertram Yachts, engaged on the Bergamo pitch tomorrow, Sunday 10 January 2021, at 18 pm. The match marks the return to the bench of coach Marco Ramondino, who already during the week directed some training sessions training. The Juventus head coach talks about his feelings after the days of forced stop due to Covid-19: ʺWhat I missed most was the direct contact with the players and staff members, even if the daily discussion with them allowed me to always stay updated. The situation that was created highlighted the ability of our technical-organizational structure to manage and cope with the difficulties of the moment.
On the matches - at home against Verona and in Mantua - which saw him absent, coach Ramondino intends to applaud Vanni Talpo and Gianmarco Di Matteo: ʺThe last two matches have highlighted the human and technical qualities of our assistants, and the credibility that they have - already long before this scenario – towards the team and the players, who executed the game plan and followed their instructions.
As for Derthona's next opponent, the Juventus head coach states that ʺBergamo is a team that plays with a very high intensity and has players who are very good at attacking rebounds. This is their prerogative: Easley, Pullazi, Seck, Zugno and Da Campo guarantee them numerous extra possessions during the matches. We will have to be good at controlling this aspect of their game to try to win the match.
Derthona Basket communicates, in agreement with the athletes, that the two positivities for Covid-19 found through molecular swabs relate to Matteo Graziani and Alessandro Morgillo, who will remain in home isolation as per health regulations.
