Towards Estra Pistoia-Bertram Derthona: the words of coach Walter De Raffaele
Bertram Derthona's journey in Serie A begins again in Pistoia: after the break for the Final Eight of the Italian Cup and for the qualifying window for the national teams, the Bianconeri will take to the pitch tomorrow at 18.15 hours against the team coached by Nicola Brienza.
The coach presented the match awaiting the Lions and the characteristics of their opponents Walter De Raffaele: “Pistoia is, so far, one of the revelations of our championship: I believe that this is the result of the work that the Club has done in the figures of the GM, the coach and the entire ownership. A very difficult match awaits us, on a very hot field and in front of a wonderful audience that supports the team to the maximum and multiplies its energy. As for the characteristics, Estra has a very high quality in the wings, among which I also consider Varnado who can play in two roles, and a lot of talent in those roles. It will be important to stay within the game plan, limiting Pistoia's play in the open field. Furthermore, control of rebounds is an element that can give us control of the match and the possibility of trying to bring home success.".
