The curtain is already rising on the Serie C championship, with the start of the post-season that will lead six Bolognese teams towards the dream of the B Interregionale. A long and winding path that will see the winner of the playoffs exit and go to the Conference finals: four teams will compete for the first two promotions (Conference A against B and C against D), while the losers will have access to the play-off for the third admission to the fourth Italian championship.
But first there is the first round of the playoffs of group G, with a best of 3 series. After the end of the regular season last weekend, the challenges will be Cmo Ozzano (1)-Cvd Casalecchio (8), Virtus Medicina (2)-Cmp Granarolo (7), Molinella (3)-Scandiano (6) and Lg Competition (4)-Francesco Francia (5).
For the queen of Ozzano, led by coach Federico Grandi (specialist in the promotions of the New Flying Balls in recent years), a path that on paper seems easy given the precedents this season (+21 in the first leg and +25 in the return leg): but the Casalecchiesi will be able to make the most of an important emotional factor, as this is the first historic participation of the club in the Serie C playoffs.
Game one is scheduled for April 26 at 20,30:11 p.m. The team that arrives with the wind in their sails is undoubtedly Virtus Medicina, who after closing the championship with 26 consecutive victories, will await the Granarolo club fresh from the masterpiece in Castelnovo ne' Monti: a victory, the latter, that sealed seventh place and favored Molinella for third place in the group. Game one will be played on April 21 at 6 p.m. As anticipated, Molinella also arrives with a lot of motivation, first of all a positive ending with 26 consecutive victories that have given coach Matteo Baiocchi and his teammates an incredible third place: on April 20,30 at 1:1 p.m. they will face Scandiano, XNUMX-XNUMX in the regular season.
Then there is Francesco Francia, who after a final rush with hiccups could be one of the loose cannons of the playoffs: the debut of the Zola Predosa club is scheduled for April 27 at 17 pm on the parquet of Castelnovo. To close the picture, waiting for the calendars, the first round of playout: Sg Fortitudo-Novellara and Arena-Vignola will be played.
