Old Wild West, beat Milan to celebrate the Italian Cup

Urania arrives, Udine wants to continue the march to conquer the first place. Ebeling out, Nobile perhaps, Mussini returns. Cappelletti: “Let’s start with the defense”

UDINE. Another step towards the first place goal. Today at 6pm the Apu Old Wild West hosts Urania Milano at the Carnera sports hall, it is the first home match in over a month and you cannot miss the appointment with the two points to keep Pistoia and Cantù at a distance.

Also this week the news coming from the infirmary is decisive for the compilation of the players’ report. Compared to the matches with Mantua and Casale, the return of Mussini is sure, who has disposed of the operated knee problem and is back at Boniciolli’s disposal.

Last minute decision, however, for Vittorio Nobile. Yesterday “Vito” did not train for the strain he remedied on Friday, but in the Juventus staff there is confidence about a recovery in extremis. Nothing to do for Ebeling, debilitated by gastroenteritis that kept him inactive for a week.

On paper, the game should not hide any particular pitfalls, the 20 points behind in the standings say everything about the gap between the two teams.

In this phase of the season, however, the teams fighting for salvation multiply their efforts to make themselves safe and it is reasonable to expect a fighting Urania. Even today, as in Mantua and Casale, it will be important to approach the race in the right way.

The spokesperson for the Juventus locker room on the eve of the match is Alessandro Cappelletti: «It will be an important match from the standings point of view. We have a lot of respect for our opponents who, compared to the first leg, will show up with a few more players.

We have to start again from the defensive test set up in Casale, where we only suffered 49 points. We have to stay focused on our final goal, we want to keep Carnera inviolate thanks also to the support of our fans ».

The occasion is good to celebrate the Italian Cup won just two weeks ago in Roseto degli Abruzzi.

The President of the Region Massimiliano Fedriga is expected at Carnera to reward the team.

Thanks to the directives of the Government, the bars of the plant will reopen, among the news there are also the celebratory t-shirt and the Apu scarf on sale for the fans. 200 more tickets on sale, box offices open from 4.30 pm.
