The Belluno people have to beat Giorgione at home in order not to see the first sixteen guests of Forte Cornedo escape: if they lose the ranking it would be a nightmare
BELLUNO
Two challenges to be overcome, for different reasons. In the B championship, the Canottieri Belluno receives today the rear rear Giorgione at the Spes Arena (4 pm, free admission) and she would need the three points to remain attached to the playoff train. Who is almost back to the wall is Giorik Sedico, ballasted by a single length and above all by four defeats in a row; today the blues and whites are expected by the fearsome Cornedo (3 pm).
HERE TANK TOP
«Losing at home to a stronger team is fine. We gave due weight to the knockout, keeping what we did as good as it was ». So Alessio Bortolini, coach of Canottieri, referring to the defeat at Pordenone. The first of the season, after two wins and two draws. Now, however, a favorable result is needed with Giorgione, otherwise they are already in danger of running away from the front. In a tournament where hierarchies have yet to be defined, losing ground can be a problem. “On the contrary, we must be careful, as it only takes a moment to slide back”, warns Bortolini, “certainly, whatever the goal for which we will race, the challenge is one of those to be won”. There are no absences in the biancoblù ranks, except for the only doubt Nessenzia. “I ask the boys to be able to transfer more of the work we do during the week to the field”.
WHO GIORIK
On the other hand, a Giorik-like performance is needed if he wants to try to score points on Cornedo’s difficult field. Compared to past seasons, the Vicenza players have clear playoff ambitions. “We still need points, little to do”, admits the coach De Francesch, who has to dispel some doubts about training, “I don’t think we deserve to have obtained at most a draw up to now, but we are lacking being able to capitalize on what good every week we manage to do. We need more peace of mind, compatibly with the moment ».
