Garlasco, prohibitive mission with the battleship Pordenone

Tonight at 20.30 the “impossible” challenge in the den of the third in the standings Coach Bertini: “It will be very hard, but we will try to play with bravado”

GARLASCO

The two points won in Fano in the recovery of the second day of return were fundamental to overtake ViviBanca Torino in the standings and to hook Fano, putting it virtually behind at the moment, thanks to two more victories of the Marche.

“Winning in Fano is always a feat and doing it in this way was exactly what we needed, what we were looking for and what we wanted – says coach Vittorio Bertini – At the beginning of the week, at the resumption of training, after the opaque performance against Macerata, we promoted a confrontation between staff, athletes and clubs. A serene confrontation from which this courageous and determined test arose. Several players were in poor physical condition, yet they led a generous match: these are the aspects that make us most satisfied. An applause also to all the members of the staff and companies, who have built and managed a complicated trip ».

Above all, the return to success after three defeats in a row without points gives strength and courage to an environment that needed it and that with the spirit of those who have nothing to lose tonight at 20.30 faces an almost prohibitive away match in Prata di Pordenone. . The Friulians were the team that most impressed at PalaRavizza in the first round and that first became the surprise and then the real revelation of this championship by combining important physicality with a first level technical figure. “Tonight in Prata di Pordenone is a” mission impossible “, to be faced with the utmost bravado”, adds Bertini about the difficult away match which, together with next Sunday’s next home match against Abba Pineto, starts on paper as a match almost closed prediction, but it can become a wild card if both today and February 20 from these challenges Garlasco manages to snatch unexpected and really heavy points.
