It will be played in Bologna, the match is worth access to the Final Eight
–
SASSARI. New Year’s Eve in the gym for Dinamo Sassari Banco di Sardegna, busy preparing for the away match on Sunday, when the biancoblù will be on stage at 5 pm at the Unipol Arena against Reggio Emilia. It is the thirteenth and penultimate day of the first round and Gianmarco Pozzecco’s boys are hunting for the victory that formalizes access to the Final Eight of the Italian Cup, scheduled from 11 to 14 February at the Mediolanum Forum in Milan. The match against the Emilians – which has become a “classic” for Italian basketball since the challenge awarded the 2015 Scudetto, won by Banco – will also be a fundamental step towards approaching the decisive mission on Spanish soil: after the home debacle with the Danes of the Bakken Bears, captain Jack Devecchi and associates will have to find victory also in Europe to be sure to continue their path in the Champions League, although the challenge of the fifth round at Tenerife is not exactly a walk.
“We are starting the year on a difficult field, Antimo Martino is a very good coach and has top-level interpreters, from Brandon Taylor to Frank Elegar”, comments the assistant coach, Edoardo Casalone, in view of the departure. “We play against a team that has the offensive rebound among its strengths, a voice that worries us and on which we are working – says Casalone – we are growing a lot, but we will have to keep them under control”. For its part, Dinamo arrives at the challenge “with great enthusiasm and energy, we know what we have to do on the pitch and we have shown it during the last league games – says Pozzecco’s deputy – we are working on the right tracks, we are chasing the dream Final Eight and we will go to Bologna to play against Reggio Emilia with great energy and great energy ».
