Gioia’s chairman could hardly hide how happy he was following the qualification of his team to the final of the playoffs at the expense of Roma in a decisive game 3.

“I don’t think playing the decider away from home is such a big problem – he said about the final against Latina – because if we win the first two games, we won even need it. I have seen so much fighting spirit and determination in the eyes of the players and the coach that I convinced myself they would not disappoint us. It’s been really tough and we faced many problems but we managed to go ahead. The emotions of this semi final victory is a great reward but we can certainly not stop here now”.
