Potenza Picena defeated the Algerian national team 3-1 in a friendly game played today. If we include the friendly matches, Potenza is on a five-game winning streak. This was a positive performance ahead of Sunday’s clash against Padova, the league leader. The same Algerian team had beaten Potenza in pre-season in a tournament in Spoleto, which makes it a little revenge.

“Our good run of form continues with a nice team performance – said coach Graziosi – We have been competitive and we put the effort in. I have a real unit and it’s nice to obtain results with the full squad working hard from start to finish”.
