the situation

After the stop of the previous round with Cerro Maggiore, the race of leaders Robbio resumed at full speed, who, within the friendly walls of PalaCantone, overtook Ardens Sedriano for 80-63. Victory number ten (in 11 matches) for the Aironi of coach Zanotti who thus reach 20 points in the standings with 4 points on Cerro, the most direct pursuer. However, there is no time to stop, given that the derby with Edimes Sanmaurense is scheduled for Saturday at the PalaRavizza in Pavia (8.30 pm).

«Against Sedriano it was our worst start to the game of the season – comments Pier Zanotti – Even if we immediately took over the reins of the match and managed it in a calm way until the end, obtaining two important points. For the match against Sanmaurense this and much more will be needed, given that we are talking about a derby at home of a good team: they will try to play to death to put us in difficulty, while we will have to be able to cope with these situations, doing treasure of the defeat suffered in Cerro. It will be a good match: we want and can take it home ».

The Edimes of coach Fossati, after having obtained three successes in a row between the championship and the cup, collapsed on the parquet of Legnano (84-47) and will have to find their game as soon as possible, starting from the complicated match against the lomellini. The red and white are now in fourth place, at 12. «I am very disappointed with the team’s performance – comments the Sanmaurense coach, Roberto Fossati – comments Fossati – Especially for the general attitude in response to the first difficulties. However, I would like to congratulate Legnano because at the moment they are probably the best team in the championship and they deserved the victory. We have shown so far that we are neither mentally nor technically at the level of the three teams that are above us in the ranking and we will have to work hard to reach them. Against Robbio, I expect that what happened in Legnano will not happen: we have to react and play a great match, there is no reason not to try to make the shot in our home ». On the other hand, the negative streak of the Olympia Voghera youth continues: the eleventh consecutive defeat has come against Cerro. –
