Towards Edilnol Biella-Bertram Derthona: the words of coach Ramondino and Martini
Championship eve for Bertram Yachts Derthona, awaiting the match against Edilnol Biella scheduled for tomorrow, Wednesday 30 October 2019, at 20.30 pm at the Hype Forum in Biella. The Lions are fresh from the home defeat against Reale Mutua Torino and are preparing to play - on the 5th day of the West Group of the Serie A2 Old Wild West championship - the second consecutive Piedmontese derby.
ʺWe must start from the awareness that to be a winning team there are certain standards, such as defensive presence and physicality and offensive execution and pace, which cannot be lowered regardless of shooting percentages. We believe – states coach Marco Ramondino – that this is important in every situation and, in particular, when playing an away matchʺ.
The Derthona coach's analysis then focuses on the next opponent, Biella, who is a team with ʺlong players capable of opening the field and giving the outside players the opportunity to attack the basket, suffer fouls and create advantages. It will therefore be necessary to counter their physicality and athleticism; another important aspect will be that of rebounds, especially in light of difficult pairings with players like Donzelli and Polite, who can act in different rolesʺ.
Also on the same wavelength is Matteo Martini, captain of Bertam Yachts Derthona, who claims how ʺBiella is a team of pace and running; at home he performed well also thanks to the support of the fans. It will therefore be our task to try to limit their partial scores as much as possible during the matchʺ.
The winger then spoke about what needs to be done by playing every three days, underlining that ʺyou need to have knowledge and awareness of your body, make some technical adjustments and be mentally constant and convinced, believing in your daily workʺ.
