Virtus Ragusa Suffers Second Consecutive Defeat: Struggles Continue for the Team

Second defeat in a row for Virtus Ragusa, which shows that it has not overcome the internal defeat against Capo d’Orlando and falls on the San Rufo parquet against Sala Consilina. Recupido’s boys competed head-on for almost the entire first quarter, then gave way suddenly in the second set, when the hosts flew to +11. A 5-0 by Epifani and Vavoli brought Virtus closer together, but it was a flash in the pan. The Campania team extends to +16 and maintains a safety margin until the end of the match. Virtus condemned by terrible three-point shooting percentages (6/26) and 18 turnovers, far too many to think they could survive on the road.

“Congratulations to Sala Consilina because they were coming off three consecutive defeats – says coach Gianni Recupido – We played a very bad game, we probably haven’t yet immersed ourselves in the reality of this championship: as demonstrated by the results from the first five days, we have to fight and fight because all the teams can put you in difficulty. You have to know how to read the games and stay calm. Most likely something is stuck in the communication of what we want to be as a type of team and what we want to do on the pitch over the 40 minutes. Obviously the responsibility for these difficulties lies exclusively with me and we must immediately change the tone.”

The first opportunity presents itself in the midweek shift. Virtus returns to the pitch on Wednesday 1st November, at PalaPadua, against Next Casa Barcellona. The match will be valid for the sixth day of the championship.
