Usac ready for the rescue Against Cinderella Arona

But Porcelli warns: “They are last in the standings but they give everyone a hard time” The Altocanavesani on Sunday with Savigliano paid for some mistakes

RIVAROLO

Third away match of the season for Usac Rivarolo tomorrow, Saturday 21 November. He will be on stage at the Arona sports hall against the local team on the fifth day of the Serie C gold championship. The meeting will be directed by the couple formed by Lorenzo D’Errico from Grugliasco and Fabio Dell’Infante from Turin. Last week for the team coached by Titto Porcelli he ran into a home defeat at Falcone di Leini against Savigliano. An anomalous game, however well played by the Alto Canavesani who until the beginning of the last quarter had given the impression of being able to win.

Then the Cuneo people, taking advantage of some sensational mistakes by the rivarolese, scored a 13-0 run to go on to win by a wide margin: 57-68. The rivarolesi against Savigliano found themselves facing a very experienced team made up of players of great technique who did not forgive anything to the opponents who for their part had captain Ferraresi in not perfect conditions (he gritted his teeth and played).

A positive fact in the ranks of Usac are the defensive rebounds where they have conceded little to their opponents.

Tomorrow’s match will see the rivarolesi go to play with a team still at zero points in the standings but this must not fool anyone because they have always fought on the pitch until the last second. With Ciriè they lost, for example, 69-70, a match decided in the sprint but for the Arona there were forty-seven points from three players: Gatti with 25, Realini with 12 and Giacomelli 10 for the quintet coached by Francesco Petricca.

In view of the match against Arona the Usac coach Titto Porcelli says: «Tomorrow we will face a team still at zero points in the standings but which so far have played on par with everyone, losing at home twice by just one point. It has some very experienced players and some interesting youngsters. We will certainly play aware of our possibilities after the excellent performance last week with Savigliano where we played very well and stayed in the game for more than quarter-finals. Certainly we will have to be more careful and avoid mistakes that can then decide the game to the detriment ».
