Finally! Next Sunday, the improvement of the pandemic will allow the public to watch WiPlanet matches in Serie A 2021.
Guest of the yellow-green will be the Academy Nettuno, a young formation that acts as a nursery for Nettuno 1945.
Like WiPlanet, the Academy has lost all 4 games played so far; 12 to 2 and 12 to 0 with Nettuno 1945 and 5 to 4 and 6 to 3 at home against Paternò, with a game trend that resembles that of Montefiascone.
The statistical data of the first 4 games also tell us that they will probably be two games on the edge of equilibrium, with the same opponents met: same number of defensive errors (7 per team) and almost equal defense average (945 Montefiascone and 949 l ‘Academy), while the Academy is a bit above (198 against 185). Both teams have four batters above average 250: Neptune with catcher Gomez (308), second baseman D’Auria (286), DH Restante (273) and center fielder Neri (250), Wiplanet with De Simone receiver (a stratospheric 571), the external Gomez (286), the second base Marras (286) and the external Prosperi (273); but WiPlanet expects an improvement in the excellent hitters who have remained in the shadows so far, such as Vincenti, Matteo Carletti and Vaglio.
Even the pitchers appear balanced, with WiPlanet favored in the morning game with Andretta, certainly superior to the Neptunian starter Dini, while in the game of the foreigner Gonzales he has so far played better than the yellow-green Polanco; but the whole environment is counting on a decisive increase in the level of the Venezuelan left-handed, which would make the team more competitive even in the afternoon game.
“Sunday we play two important matches both for us and for our opponents – declared the manager Licciardi – given that so far both teams are at zero points, with a keen desire to unlock the ranking. They are two young teams and certainly at the Porroni stadium the public, who will finally be able to participate, will see two good matches. Luckily we recovered Bryan Gomez, who recovered from his contracture, but unfortunately second baseman Marras got a bad ankle sprain, which will certainly keep him out, hopefully only this week. We have prepared the game from every point of view and I am optimistic both for an excellent performance by the boys and for the result of the double match. “
In the other match of the group, Nettuno 1945, as the favorite, will host Paternò, for a battle at the top that will identify the first of the group. At the end of June the first of each of the 8 groups will move on to the next phase, which will lead to the playoffs for the Scudetto, while the other teams will form 4 groups of 6, where the last classified will be relegated to Serie B.
On Wednesday 2 June he played Serie C, a narrow defeat (13 to 8) by Arezzo, however showing continuous progress; Next Sunday he will play in Viterbo against Rams, and one of the two teams will be able to leave zero in the standings.
