the Virtus pays duty, which is the delayed departure from the rivals, and gives two important points to Costa Masnaga direct rival for salvation. After a good start the bianconere, with the grafting of Begic (7 p in the first minutes), however, suffered the reaction of the girls of Paolo Seletti that at the interval they closed in advantage. A positive third quarter has kept the match in balance, but the small ones of the visiting team, Balossi and Baldelli best in the field, have scored and given the right pace to the companions who have continued. In the end the awakening of Salvadores, appeared nervous and imprecise in the first 20 ', turned on some hope to coach Giroldi who tried the possible solutions, all useless and the victory went to Costa Masnaga.

Poor percentage (39%) to the shot and too many turnovers were the real causes of the defeat that risks weighing heavily on the ranking.

Obviously the embittered coach in his comment:"Congratulations to the opponents who showed a good basketball and a good game organization and presented themselves without fear. We have shown to be discontinuous, to go in flashes and in the moments of pause we are lost. Even when we did a good job, we didn't capitalize on it. We have to play with more coldness and application, without allowing our opponents easy accomplishments. However, compared to the previous matches I have seen good progress and we will have to work on these. I don't know if the Company will make interventions on the market, this does not concern me. I train those I have available ”.

Seletti's statements. ”I am obviously very happy with the result in this field. Not of the game because we could do better … and so we gave our fans some sport suffering. We tried to speculate on the 3-point shot by conceding the outside shot and occupying the best positions in the area. "
