On the first day back
The convincing performance on Saturday evening at the 4T shovel gave great enthusiasm to coach Villani’s Despar, who was at work for the first day back: it will not be a game like the others, given that the Scuola will be waiting for the grenade at the Giuseppe Bondi Arena Basketball Ferrara. Newly promoted with seven wins in the season, coach Mancin’s boys will be a difficult obstacle for Despar to overcome, still looking for their first away success: in fact, in the first leg it was a challenge fought in the first 15 minutes, until the draw decisive of the SBF, capable of rejecting even the attempt to return the grenade until 56-82 of the last siren. The 4 Torri is therefore called for a revenge, in order not to give up on the goal of reaching safety: a double ball on Saturday 21 January at 20:00 at the Giuseppe Bondi Arena in Ferrara for a derby that promises to be open and spectacular.
In the weekend’s matches, Pallacanestro Correggio closed the first leg undefeated: Magik Parma surrendered away 82-76. Narrow victories for Despar in terms of salvation against Imola (91-89 in extra time), of Lugo on the Novellara field (81-82), of San Lazzaro in the derby at San Pietro in Casale (63-65) and of Medicine, who conquers the second solitary place, against Omega (89-84 in overtime). Scandiano in the Reggio derby interrupts the run-up to Rebasket (71-83), while Santarcangelo wins by hand in Bertinoro (59-111); finally Casalecchio confirms itself as the fourth strength of the championship with the home victory 68-58 against Scuola Basket Ferrara.
