Franco Ciani will return tomorrow to sit on the bench: the stage all‘Allianz Dome against theUnahotels Reggio Emilia at 20.45 is thus explained by the red and white technician, who has just been negativised at Covid. “We will have to find the right balance: on the one hand there is the great enthusiasm aroused by the victory of Cremona, on the other hand we suffer the consequences caused by three weeks of quite fluctuating work in terms of intensity, attendance and type of work that we have been able to carry out. After three weeks of split work, it is not easy to play every three days, but we will try to find the right physical energy and the right mental attitude right from the tap-off, to deal correctly with a solid formation like Reggio Emilia “.
They will also return to the field Fernandez e Banks, while the injured person will be missing Alessandro Lever: «The returns of Juan and Adrian are very important in the team economy even if they still have to deal with the consequences of Covid and as staff we will have to know how to manage them in the best possible way. As for Alessandro, I am very sorry because he was having a great rookie season and was constantly growing. This stop slows down his path, but he will have to be patient and mentally solid to overcome the difficult moment: he is a tough guy and I know that he will face every stage of his recovery in the right way, hoping for a return as quickly as possible ».
The coach has no doubts about what the extra weapon of his team should be to overcome the host formation: «The group has been and must continue to be our strong point so far. We will have to work very hard on defense because the mechanisms of coach Caja are almost perfect and his teams play basketball with great precision. Reggio Emilia is certainly a dangerous team where Cinciarini’s experience and propensity to assist stand out, being surrounded by professional and talented players, despite the absence of Candi ».
