Tegola on Vigevano, the Procacci play out for a month

The titular director suffered a muscle injury. Coach Piazza studies the alternatives, in early warning Rossi and Tagliavini

VIGEVANO

For at least a month Elachem Vigevano will have to do without its starting point guard Alessandro Procacci, who suffered an injury of about one centimeter to a muscle in a leg and in the next ten days will have to devote himself to specific work for recovery. The injury occurred in the middle of last Sunday’s match against Borgomanero. Procacci had to leave the field early. Once the injury has been healed, resume preparation with a view to returning to the field.

The ducal playmaker had already had to miss several training sessions due to a shoulder injury in December.

A heavy tile

«For us – says coach Paolo Piazza – it is a heavy tile because we find ourselves having to replace the starting player. The possible alternatives are Rossi and Tagliavini, but the second, who has already made his debut in the league, has just turned eighteen and does not have much experience in a difficult tournament like Serie B. he will still have to be ready. The further alternative is to distort the Peroni guard, who at the moment is the best shooter monster ».

Elachem, always at the top alone in group A, is preparing to face the most demanding and decisive month for the first phase of the championship without one of the team’s top elements. Next Sunday Vigevano will start the tour de force by hosting Piombino at PalaBasletta: against the Tuscans in the first leg he won, but with difficulty.

In addition to the calendar commitments, Paolo Piazza’s team will also have to play the championship recovery against Florence and the final eight of the Italian Cup, which will start from 11 March, with Elachem opposing Cremona in the quarterfinals. –
