Costone away to Borgomanero to reverse the trend. Objective salvation: Mens Sana-Don Bosco and Stosa-Collegno

The return round of the season begins play in gold and Rib wants to recover the ground lost in the first half of the second phase, with the declared aim of entering the play-off. However, we start from an away match and it is never easy to play away from home in such an uncertain and balanced season. However, there is the desire to give it your all, as coach has said several times Michael Belletti: a concept that acquires further value after the injury suffered by Ferdinand Hake, still stuck in the pits, presumably for the penultimate time. We therefore start with the challenge to College Basketball Borgomanero, in Piedmont, tip-off at 18 pm, Bavera from Desio and Di Pilato from Paderno Dugnano the referees. In the first leg, at PalaOrlandi, Borgomanero won 90-84. "From the last game, against Pavia, we must take the good things we did, that is, we managed to interrupt a trend that was absolutely negative. In the last quarter we managed to recover a game that was practically already lost and this must give us more motivation". He starts from the analysis of the last game played Richard Riccardini (pictured), assistant coach of the Vismederi. "We are facing Borgomanero - Riccardini said - and we have to start the second half of the season in the best possible way. We will have to fight, we know it. We start at a disadvantage in terms of physical aspect, which is one of their best qualities, so we will have to be good at finding alternatives and playing fast. Today our watchword is to be free in the head, play loose and have fun. Starting from here we will have to try to defend the area and not repeat the mistakes already made, especially regarding offensive rebounds conceded". Costone is ninth in the standings today, it has the same points (12) as Casale Monferrato and Arezzo, but the head-to-head standings favor the Piedmontese. For the first time Vismederi finds itself in a position that would exclude it from the playoffs, nevertheless "the team is fine - Riccardini concluded -. We are training seriously and carefully, trying to iron out the details. We want to go to Borgomenero to win".
