Don Bosco Faces High-Flying Sansepolcro Dukes in Crucial Home Showdown
Livorno, Italy – The roar of the home crowd is back! just six days after a tough road test against league leaders Agliana, Pallacanestro Don Bosco is set to return to the familiar hardwood of PalaMacchia this Saturday. Tip-off is slated for 6:45 PM local time as Don Bosco hosts the sansepolcro Dukes, a team currently riding a serious wave of momentum.
Massimo Bini’s squad,the Sansepolcro Dukes,arrives in Livorno with their “biorhythms at the top,” as the saying goes. They’ve been on a tear,securing four victories in their last five outings. This extraordinary run has propelled the Biturgensi club to the upper echelon of the league standings, making them a formidable opponent for any team.
Don Bosco will need to be at their absolute best to counter the Dukes’ potent offensive attack. While Sansepolcro may not boast a deep roster, they feature players of undeniable talent. Power forward Radchenko leads the charge, averaging a team-high 15.8 points per game.Alongside him is the seasoned veteran Hassan,who,at 35 years old,continues to be a significant threat,putting up an impressive 11.6 points per contest. Keep an eye on Bazani, De Angelis, and Spillantini as well, all of whom are consistently scoring in double figures.
To silence such a gifted offensive unit, Pallacanestro Don Bosco must bring their A-game. This means unleashing the same aggression and defensive energy that has defined their best performances, maintaining that intensity for the full 40 minutes. The key will be to disrupt Sansepolcro’s preferred tempo and prevent the game from unfolding on their terms.
Head Coach Giuseppe Di Manno echoed these sentiments when previewing the matchup:
“we’re excited to be back playing in front of our home fans, hosting Sansepolcro, another significant team in this championship. Our opponents are coming into Livorno energized by two consecutive victories against Bottegone and Rosignano, which have certainly propelled them into the top ranks. They have two standout players in Hassan and Radchenko, who are undoubtedly their primary offensive weapons.we’re coming off the Agliana game where we struggled defensively at times, so it’s crucial for us to re-establish our defensive mindset and be aggressive on every possession to limit their scoring opportunities. For us, every game is an possibility to learn and show our development. We aim to face Sansepolcro with focus, discipline, and strong team spirit, bringing high energy and intensity to the court for the entire game.”
