Old Wild West, no business: Naples wins in Udine and climbs to A

by admin

UDINE. The Apu Old Wild West sees the dream of promotion go out in race 4. Upstairs there is Napoli, the strongest team in the league, built with substantial investments.

It is the law of sport: the strongest wins, but Udine must be granted something more than the honor of arms.

This team is to be applauded, applauded for a long time for what it managed to do from the first Super Cup race held in October until the last one yesterday. Winning Udine would have brought Naples to beauty: it would have been a real sporting miracle.

Boniciolli’s band remained clinging to the game until six minutes from the end when with a basket from under captain Antonutti signed the minus 1 (60-61).

From that moment on the Neapolitans have put in series four actions in a row from three points: a two plus one by Burns, the bombs by Uglietti (62-70), Mayo (63-73) and another two plus one by Parks (65-76).

The opponents were good at finding the best solutions against the Friulian defense who once again did his duty fully. The difference was made by experience and the habit of playing certain games.

In attack Udine did not even have a quartet point made up of Nobile, Schina, Deangeli and Mobio. Boniciolli found Mian, who remained at zero in race three, but that was not enough.

In a Carnera where you sweat to stand still and where the fans use the sponsor cards as a fan, Sacripanti proposes something new.

In the twelve reappears Iannuzzi, never used in this series, who in the final of the Italian Cup and in the two races of the second phase had done a lot of harm to the APU.

The long is even re-proposed as a quintet and repays the trust by immediately putting four from below. Gevi, who had taken three offensive rebounds after as many shooting errors in the first action of the match, goes to 2-7 and Boniciolli immediately calls a time-out.

The Juventus coach responds with Pellegrino and Foulland at the same time on the pitch.

Udine manages to close the area and thanks to the uninspiring percentages of the Neapolitans from the arc he slowly mends the tear: it is 11-11 at half time thanks to a counterattack by Johnson who, after a “stoppatona” by Pellegrino even signs the overtaking bomb (14-11).

Napoli finds good continuity in attack with Uglietti who scores six points: the last two arrive with an action built in five seconds without Udine going to spend a foul (he had just two).

The second quarter restarts with an Italian bomb that then suffers the background from Parks: the referees do not whistle and the former Triestine on the rebound places a bloody two plus one.

The former Fortitudo comes out and is teased by the Neapolitan bench: they are sparks on the pitch and also on the parquet. Burns breaks the ice (21-27), then in defense on a feint by Foullan jumps and hangs from the basket and the retina committing a foul: it should be technical, but the referees restart with a throw-in.

A decision that to define questionable is an understatement. The Carnera rises, but Naples does not break down: Lombardi finds the bomb of the plus 9 (23-32), DJ takes a technician and Deangeli commits a naivete by collapsing on Monaldi who is shooting from three.

The Neapolitan captain puts two and gives the maximum advantage to the guests (23-34). At the end of the 24 ‘Mian finds an incredible basket: it is the spark that gives energy to Udine who in an amen square a 9-0 partial completed by the bomb of the Gorizia that rises to an altitude of 10.

Two free shots from Johnson and a basket on Pellegrino’s siren set the tie at the long interval.

Udine puts his nose back on with Jonhson (40-38): it will be the last time. When Naples accelerates it hurts. In this phase it is Giuri who keeps Udine standing. At 48-50 Nobile does not put the bomb of overtaking.

He is very wrong from the line on both fronts, but the balance does not break. Mian at the beginning of the last quarter signs the minus one (55-56), then the phase already described at the beginning.

When the match has already been decided, there is a somewhat heated exchange of views between Giuri and Marini that the referees punish with a double technician.

It was not an impeccable direction that of the men in gray, they missed a few whistles, but they did not affect the result.

If there is something we would have gladly done without this splendid final series is the excessive and provocative exultation of the president of Gevi and vice president of the League, Federico Grassi who confirmed that the class either you have it or you don’t buy it. at the supermarket. The home crowd ignited for a moment, then thought of paying homage to their team with a long, heartfelt and well-deserved applause. –
