It is Pallacanestro Angri to be awarded the pass for the final of the Serie C Gold championship where they will face the winner of the other semifinal between Trinity Basketball and Benevento Cestistica. Game 3 of the semifinal saw the deserved victory of the Angresi for 81-63 against a Ble who appeared annihilated by the tension and unable to produce his game both in attack and in defense. Undoubtedly the best response of the quintet of coach Costagliola who put great intensity in defense from the first minutes of the game and an attacking game that, while always hinging on the unstoppable Markovic, has from time to time involved all the athletes sent in. field.
The precision in shooting from a distance then did the rest allowing the local team to reach a double-digit advantage already at the end of the first period of play (23-11) and a +21 at the long interval (47-26) which is already seemed to sound like a sentence, given the lack of reaction on the part of the Caserta people unable to counter their opponents and strangely firm in attack. For the record, the balance on the pitch lasted only the first few laps of hands but then Angri definitely took command of the operations with 8 consecutive points from Izzo (with 2/2 of three) transforming the first advantage into double digits (13- 3) shooting errors and turnovers by the bianconeri.
D’Addio tried to run for cover with a series of changes that led to the field, between the final part of the first period and the first part of the second, an unreleased quintet made up of De Ninno, Greco, Tinto, Blair and Bagdonavicius, however, without obtaining particular results given the 11-4 run by Daunys and Chiavazzo. And it was the Angrese captain himself who widened the gap with two consecutive baskets after a timid reaction from Caserta (40-21). Markus and Cioppa tried to reduce the gap by bringing their team to -14 (40-26) but Iannicelli and Markovic brought the hosts back to +18 (44-26) before a lucky De Martino basket on the siren made mark the +21 with which you went to the long interval (47-26).
Upon returning to the field, a reaction from Ble was expected which, however, was exhausted very soon with the hosts who continued to find easy solutions in attack and to take advantage of the many mistakes of Caserta so as to reach a +27 ( 60-33) with De Martino’s free throws. It was again Cioppa who tried to bring his team closer to the opponents, helping with Tinto and Kuvekalovic to reduce the gap to 66-47 before Markovic’s basket which scored 68-47 in the 30th minute. The last period had little history with Angri who limited himself to controlling the game and with Caserta who saw the last chance to overturn a confrontation that the locals deserved for the determination and the competitive spirit put in place.
“It was the first half that determined the progress of the match – comments coach D’Addio at the end of the match -. We struggled to equalize their energy, allowing too many second shots; their long-range shooting percentages then made the difference. the rest, giving Angri the opportunity to take an advantage which has become difficult to recover. Honor to Angri for having brought home the series, competing in an absolute level match 3 “.
