The stories, the intersections, the anniversaries on the sporting axis between Varese and Trieste they are very numerous. They also touch the soccer – do you remember the transfer of a large part of the red and white team to the Julian city in the mid-eighties? – but it is on the basketball court that this exchange is particularly substantial.
From the time of Dacio Bianchi – from Lombardy to the eastern border – to the Serie B playoffs between Stefanel and Roburat the landing under the Sacro Monte of “such” Gianmarco Pozzecco (who was born in Gorizia but is from Trieste in all respects) and Alessandro Depolup to the transfers in recent times such as that of Daniele Cavaliero or Giancarlo Ferrero. Today I am cinque, between the field and the desk, the former Varese citizens who wear the halberd: Ruzzier, mule docmoved from Openjobmetis and relaunched himself in his city, Ross e Brown they are linked to the epic of the Unforgettables (but they refused to return), Moretti arrived on the Adriatic this year. And Michael Archers he is regretted by many in Varese, and perhaps Luis Scola regretted that short marriage which was not extended. Finally, speaking of current events, there is also Davide Alviti who in Trieste proved to be a high-level player, earning the blue and the call to Milan.
In short, the ones that will face each other Sunday 21 December (8pm) It’s a game between opponents who know each other well even if on paper they are destined to live in different classification zones. Trieste – property and many American dollars – she got a taste for it last year and set off again with great ambitions even if she will show up in Masnago with some stomach aches. The championship is good but not excellent (6 wins, 5 losses), in the cup there was a bad defeat in the week with friction between the ex Laker Toscano-Anderson and coach Israel Gonzalez while the Mady pivot Sissoko got hurt and he won’t play.
However, all this does not allow us to predict a beaten Trieste, on the contrary: the Julians have a great number of players in the squad (Colbey and Markell, obviously, but also Toscano himself, l’ala Uthoff e il bomber Ramsey) and without Sissoko they could adopt quintets even faster, lower and more unpredictableunbalanced on the guard sector. In short, it will be tough and we knew it: OJM returns to play at home after the fool with Udine which – it must be acknowledged – was the only true one down since Ike Iroegbu has been in the team (although there have only been two victories in this period).
The one against Trieste will also be the first match after the substantial corporate strengthening announced by Scola (with the heavy entry of the Tigros group): needless to say that it would be nice to celebrate on the pitch too consolidate the ranking e not just the views chambers. It begins – as we said – at 8pm at dusk on the 12th day, the last before Christmas. Then we will meet in Trapani on the 28th, on the field that has been the center of attention in recent months.
