Elachem Vigevano challenges Libertas Livorno in the Serie A2 salvation playoffs

On the road to salvation. Elachem Vigevano left yesterday afternoon for Livorno where today at 18:2 they will face Libertas Livorno in the first of five possible challenges that will be worth staying in Serie A2 and that will be played in the space of just ten days. The two teams will return to the field on Tuesday for game 3; then the series will move to Vigevano for game 4 and the possible game 5 and finally, if the tie continues, the decisive game 21 would be necessary on Wednesday XNUMX May.

"We must only think about ourselves – is the mantra that coach Lorenzo Pansa repeats –, in such a tight series and with so much at stake, what counts are energy, toughness and determination, all qualities that we have shown off several times. We will have to be good at recovering quickly and leaving behind what has happened, focusing only on the commitment that will come". Yesterday at the start, the team was greeted by the Ultras group that, throughout the year, has not followed the team on away games where a nominative ticket was required, as is the case in Livorno. As of yesterday afternoon, however, not all the tickets for today's match had been sold, 236 in total for the ducal supporters, equal to 10% of the capacity of the PalaMacchia which will be the theater of the challenges between two teams that want to stay in A2 at all costs.
