– “Dirty” game and decided above all by the episodes played at the BLM Group Arena. Trento prepared the game well by imparting his game and breaking the characteristic rhythm of the Pesaro attack. Many and unusual errors from the arc for Repesa’s team which, despite this, also reaches a double-digit advantage at a certain point in the match. The landlords didn’t give up and came out on top thanks to the grit and play of the usual Forray. The coach whistled against Moretti in the last minute was also decisive.
