Both trips postponed for a week The ducals stopped by Covid cases among their opponents
PAVIA
The match that Riso Scotti Punto Edile was scheduled to play next Sunday in Torrenova, Sicily, the last match of the clock phase of the championship, has been postponed to 9 May (with a duo at 16).
“I want to reassure everyone that this is not a problem related to Covid – specifies gm from Pavia Lele Caserio – we were faced with a logistical situation that forced us to ask Torrenova to postpone the game, between flights and schedules they did not coincide. The Sicilian company immediately accepted our request. The starting time at 4 pm will allow us to return to Pavia in the evening ».
The start of the playoffs, among other things, will probably postpone to May 22-23 (see box alongside) to allow all teams to recover the postponed matches. «It is a very probable hypothesis – comments Caserio – Our play Piazza? On Sunday he did not take the field against Bologna because during the warm-up phase he felt a pain in his right calf. The control ultrasound performed on Monday did not find any problems, so it was only a hardening of the calf and yesterday he was in the gym ».
The other absent was Lollo D’Alessandro. “For him the situation is different – Caserio closes – he is improving, but at this moment he must remain at complete rest, in addition to doing the appropriate therapies”.
Crema-Vigevano also skips
The challenge between Crema and Vigevano was also postponed to 9 May, initially scheduled for next Sunday at 6 pm The stop, however, was decided not for logistical reasons, but for the cases of positivity to Covid found in the team of Cremaschi, in struggle with Elachem for third place. Crema already had one game less than Vigevano, given that last Sunday’s derby with Cremona was also canceled for Covid.
The Vigevano basketball will thus have the possibility of fully recovering two players absent in the match, however, largely won with the goalkeeper Palermo, namely Mario Bevilacqua and Valerio Cucchiaro. Bevilacqua reported a problem in last Wednesday’s match against Bernareggio, while Cucchiaro injured his ankle in training, the same one that had already had a problem fifteen days ago in the match against Torrenova. Elachem prepares for the last effort of phase two with the certainty of qualification for the playoffs. –
