The second act of the grand final is upon us, preparations are shivering and the unnerving wait is becoming more and more subtle. A trip to the deep south of the boot with the aim of re-emerging from the depths of a 0-3 that still cries out for revenge. A Videx ready to do anything to overturn a series that began uphill, determined to redeem the PalaGrotta match to bring the last decisive chapter of the final promotion back to PalaGrotta.

The most delicate moment of the whole season, the real test for Vecchi and his companions, called to the challenge in a context that seems to be rowing in the exact opposite direction. The still fresh enthusiasm of a 3-0 at home, a palas that promises to be hot and the ferocity of those who know they have in their hands the great opportunity to snatch the pass for the A2 series in front of their audience; like a predator from distant times, Aci Castello feels the “smell of blood” and yearns to inflict the final blow to the wounded opponent.
