The perfect Sunday, with over one hundred Centesi celebrating on their return from the trip to the Tyrrhenian coast and a ranking that finally smiles on Benedetto, today at +4 on the playouts together with Orzinuovi, the next opponent of Delfino and his teammates. With a Davis like this, it is tough for everyone, even for a Libertas chasing, galvanized by victories and the change of technical leadership, but abruptly slowed down by a Cento increasingly aware of its own means, especially away from the Baltur Arena. It is a Sella that convinces and that has convinced, on both halves of the court. Especially the defensive one: according to Di Paolantonio, that is where his team managed to bring home a very important direct clash. "We won it in defense by doing a great team work - the coach's post-match comment -. We wanted to be aggressive and we succeeded, in the end the game plan paid off, this is because the boys were very good both at doing what I asked of them and at resisting the breaks produced by Livorno". Now, safety is no longer something difficult to achieve, but a concrete and attainable goal. "We have a four-point advantage over the playouts, which is an extraordinary result today, but it is still a long way off, so we must continue like this, working hard in training as we have been doing for months now". In closing, a special dedication to the people of Cento. "They have always been there, even in the most difficult periods. They always follow us and this time too they have given us a great push: this group has become even more united thanks to them. However, I repeat, we have not done anything yet, the championship is endless and always ready to give surprises".
