Match ball for Vigevano after overtaking in race 3 on San Vendemiano

Elachem can close the accounts already tonight at PalaSaccon Piazza: we are solid and intense, but another battle awaits us

VIGEVANO

Elachem also wins race 3 and overtakes San Vendemiano in the play-off semifinal, starting at 2-1. After losing game 1 at PalaBasletta, the ducals managed to bring the series back in their favor and tonight at PalaSaccon (duo at 18) they have the chance to fly to the final, a fantastic goal for the yellow and blue. Vigevano limited the opposing shooters with a suffocating defense and in attack he made use of the vein and precision of Ferri, top scorer with 20 points.

A very hot match

“We played a very hard game in a very hot environment, both for the public and for the objective climatic conditions of the plant, given the humidity rate – says coach Paolo Piazza in his analysis of match 3 – I thank the supporters who have given us given a signal of closeness “. Vigevano managed the match from start to finish, always staying ahead, even if Rucker, even without Patrizio Verri, who suffered a fractured cheekbone in race 2, sold her skin dearly almost to the siren. “We have been solid and always with our heads ahead, from the first to the last second of the game – observes the coach from Vigevano – We have expressed intensity and limited their guns, except Baldini, but after all we cannot take everything away from the opponents . We were also good at controlling rebounds and on many occasions we were able to give the ball in and the ball out. Now we will take this point and prepare for the next match », concludes Piazza.

At the PalaSaccon, on Friday evening, there was a large group of yellow and blue fans who went as far as Treviso in order to make their warmth and support to the team felt in a key moment of a season that was already full of satisfactions. A scene that will probably be repeated this evening too, taking into account the limited capacity of the Venetian building, which does not exceed four hundred seats.

Since Vigevano returned to the cadeteria, the 2021-22 year has been the most positive, with the previous one already improved by the play-off semifinal lost 3-0 to Iseo. –
