Second consecutive defeat for Fiorese and first worries. Going to Vibo Valentia on sunday
“We did not serve well so our blocking and digging suffered. We still need to work a lot. This team hasn’t got its own identity yet: I have to work hard to jell the group and give it a well defined identity” Enzo Valdo says not hiding his disappointment just like the supporters do after witnessing such a match.
On the other side, Isernia’s happy faces, the team never won at PalaBassano and last night they gave an almost perfect performance from many points of view: Negao’s great diggs (70% pos.), Bidegain ù886%) and libero Kangasniemi (76%) allowed great Scappaticcio to manage the game in a way that made Bassano’s blocks spin around.
12 blocks against 2 is fairly eloquent.
Bassano was sufficient behind (64%) and good in attack (60% against 52% for Isernia), but they lost the match by serving too easily making it easy for the opponents to play.
Stephen Shittu was the best digger this match which is incredible considering he is not such a start at it; the dutch man scored 19 points with 63% pos. in attack and 3 blocks against him which is a sigh the yellow and red number one is getting back into shape.
Two away matches waiting for Fiorese (Vibo and Mantova) then back at PalaBassano against Loreto, currently the championship leader and Castellana: 4 firy matches to get as many points as possible to avoid the bottom of the standings.
