Reggio Emilia It’s difficult to get worse than that. After a horrendous performance, in terms of technical quality and intensity in the hot moments, the Una Hotels in Cremona in the first of 5 direct clashes for salvation, bowing to ex Sasha Grant and mending the margin only in the final. He does it at the end of an ugly and dirty match, won by those who at least put in more grit and desire and in which all the offensive limitations of the worst attack in the championship emerged. The new arrival Brown he had no impact, paying for early fouls, and the Italian pack did not score a single point. The absence of Vitali, stopped due to an ankle problem, is not a sufficient excuse.
