Diatec Trentino will try to come back in the series, after the loss in Unipolsai Superleague Playoffs Final Game 1 suffered  at Eurosuole Forum in Civitanova 10 days ago. Angelo Lorenzetti ‘s team will need to step up in this upcoming Game 2, they will be in the perfect conditions to do it, on the home turf at PalaTrento, in front of their home crowd, a turf where they are still undefeated in this season. Diatec will need to avoid to give Lube a match point on their home turf next sunday in Game 3, will need to avoid to play down 0-2 in the series and playing a no tomorrow game on road. Cucine Lube Civitanova wants to win on road. After the third place earned in Dhl Champions League Final Four, after the bloody tie break loss in semifinal versus Sir Sicoma Colussi Perugia, Gianlorenzo Blengini’s team saw burnt the dream of triplete, but they still grab the double in the season, after the win in Del Monte Italian Cup last january in Bologna, defeating in the final Trento. Lube will need to focus on this road win, trying to back home on a 2-0 lead in the series, with the chance to close the series next sunday on the home turf at Eurosuole Forum in Civitanova.

Tine Urnaut (Diatec Trentino):After the clear loss in Game 1, we need to step up and tie the series. We will use the strength of our fans and the confidence we always have, especially after one entire week of hard practice. We can play alot better than Game 1, where we weren’t preparred tactically after few days of rest after Game 5 versus Perugia. We want to win and play once again on our turf”.
Dragan Stankovic (Cucine Lube Civitanova): “In Trento will be a battle, we know that anyone grabbed a win at PalaTrento in this season. We already got after Champions League Final Four, after our third place, and we are now focused on this upcoming Game 2. We played a good Game 1 in Civitanova, we will need to repeat those performance, we will need to try to come back from Trento with a win, so we can play in front of our fans for the final win. But one thing at time. Now we will think to Game 2″.
