HERE VANOLI CREMONA
Demis Cavina (head coach) – “This is a bit of an opportunity to draw a line of what has been done since the beginning of the year. We won the Super Cup, we are in the top three positions in the league and we qualified for the Final Four of the Coppa Italia, all with great serenity and incredible daily work. We reap what we are sowing as a group. What we are experiencing right now must be our prize. The idea is to go and play this Final Four with the right mentality, with great ambition and great serenity. We want to keep doing well and I’m sure we will succeed, because I know my boys and the faces are the right ones”.
Lorenzo Carotti (player) – “Turin is an excellent team, they have beaten us twice in the league but this is a straight match, anything can happen. We will have to play our basketball following the instructions of the staff and putting 100% of our physical and mental energies into the match. We will give everything to achieve the best possible result, having fun and enjoying the event without worries of any kind. We were good at achieving this result and we have to enjoy it.”

HERE TURIN
Franco Ciani (coach) – “It is difficult to give a definition to the match, it will certainly be a difficult match, which, like all one-off matches, is open to any prediction. At the moment Cremona is a team in better condition than us, they are playing first in the standings, at the level of Cantù. We are recovering and getting back on track after the stop, we are certainly experiencing more difficulties than last month. A month ago the balance would have been different, but it is still a one-off match and in the past we have shown that we have the pride and ability to face this type of match with the right attitude”.
Niccolo De Vico (player) – “We know Vanoli Cremona well and we know what their value is. We are sure it will be a battle, but we can’t wait to play this semi-final”.
Note – Federico Avino will not be in the match, struggling with his injury.
Media – The race will be live on LNP Pass and live on MS Channel. The meeting will be told with real-time updates on Facebook profiles (www.facebook.com/BasketTorinoOfficial) and Instagram (@basket_torino) of Basket Turin.

HERE CANTU
Romeo “Meo” Sacchetti (coach) – “Cento is a team that certainly has quality and that is at the top of the Red group not by chance. They play good basketball and are able to find their way to the basket easily. It will be up to us to try to limit them. Da Ros is in the recovery phase, while Berdini has not yet resumed training. We think one game at a time and we know that these meetings are always difficult. A very intense commitment awaits us. There are no favourites, but we want to make progress in this competition.”
Note – Nicola Berdini is unavailable. In doubt Matteo Da Ros.
Media – Live TV on MS Channel and streaming on LNP Pass. The match will be followed with comments and photos live on the social pages of Pallacanestro Cantù: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram e Telegram.
HERE A HUNDRED
Andrea Cotti (assistant coach) – “Facing a team and a glorious club like Cantù is a great stimulus for us. We go to Busto Arsizio with great serenity, but with a great desire to do well, we want to give it a try and try to stay there for the whole weekend, even if we know the opponent’s value very well”.
Giovanni Tomassini (player) – “We are very satisfied with everything we have done to date, but we don’t want to stop. The goal is to play well and impose our game, always keeping in mind who we have in front of us. Winning against Cantù, in front of their fans, would be a truly wonderful feat. Cantù is having a top championship, it has always been first, it has very strong players. To do our thing well, it will take a lot of organization”.
