Supercoppa, at 7 pm the last match of the first phase at the sports hall. Biancoblù already in the quarters, on Saturday the match against Brindisi
SASSARI. The body and the mind on the parquet of the PalaSerradimigni, the luggage and some thoughts already at check-in, leaving for Bologna. Dinamo closes the first phase of the Italian Super Cup this afternoon at 7pm, which so far has seen them win all three matches. Today the Openjobmetis Varese arrives at PalaSerradimigni, who two days ago managed to break the ice by winning their first game of the season, against Vanoli Cremona.
The first leg match, in Masnago, is just six days away and that evening, with the games still open, Demis Cavina’s boys won thanks to a good offensive performance. Less than a week later the games are completely closed, with Dinamo with full points (3-0) and already promoted for the quarter-final on Saturday against Happy Casa Brindisi, and Varese already projected towards the debut in the championship, on 26 September against Germani Brescia. There is nothing at stake, therefore, and the respective goals, completely divergent, will ensure that each team will interpret the commitment in their own way. In short, it will be a good training for both, in which Varese has absolutely nothing to lose while Banco di Sardegna will still want to make a good impression in front of their fans.
Demis Cavina, who had already announced a squeeze as regards the team’s defensive hold on Friday evening after the victory in Cremona, will obviously want to take advantage of this testing ground to fine-tune the engine of his team. Special observation, once again Alessandro Gentile, who last week created big problems for the Sassari defense, scoring 31 points before being sent off after the hint of a fight with Mekowulu. “Obviously we will play to win, otherwise it would make no sense to go to Sassari – stated coach Adriano Vertemati before the departure -. We have the opportunity to play against a strong team and to be together and we will do it. With Gentile in the match against Cremona we had agreed to try to involve his teammates more in the first half and in fact he made 8 assists, in the third quarter I asked him to be more aggressive and he did it. The challenge will be to find the right balance between the ability to put teammates in rhythm and that of making a basket. Jones is not yet at 100%, he is already giving us so much, but he will give us even more ».
The fans, it was said: the PalaSerradimigni will be open for 35% of the capacity (green pass mandatory for all) and tickets are on sale at the Dinamo Store box office in via Nenni. In this strange pre-season with no friendlies, it will be the right opportunity to see the new team at work. Then from Saturday it will still get serious, but we can think about it starting tonight, not before.
