Punto primo: Crema goes deservedly into the league final. It played better in all of the three games of the semi-final series and had the better of Castellana Grotte, especially from a psychological standpoint. The team could just not repeat the brilliant run they had in regular season, which they had totally dominated.
“I am extremely disappointed, especially for the fans to which I apologise for failing to do what we wanted –said coach Lattari – Crema played better and deserved to pass. We did not manage to handle things psychologically”.
