BELLIZZI. It is a bitter-tasting derby for the Semperfarmacia.it Basket Bellizzi, which surrenders 60-71 to Pallacanestro Salerno. At the PalaSport in Pontecagnano Faiano, the yellow and blue players play evenly for the first 20 ‘of the match. It is the second half to decide the fate of the race, with Salerno keeping the pace better and winning the victory. The beginning of the match is characterized by a great balance, with the two teams ready to fight back point by point. Bellizzi finds Trapani in the control room, absent in the last match played against Basket Club Irpinia. The home play is good at dictating the rhythms and triggering the yellow and blue guns, Kaufmanis and Esposito above all. On the other hand, coach Menduto’s men rely on the achievement verve of Sammartino (16) and Chaves (17). At the long interval, it is perfect parity with the teams returning to the locker room at 36-36.
Upon returning to the parquet, Salerno shows a better attitude than the hosts. Di Mauro and his teammates progressively lose ground, falling under the guest shots and without the ability to find the way to the basket with regularity. The partial 10-18 sends the teams to the last interruption at 46-54. In the last period, the team dear to patron Pellegrino fails to realize a comeback that remains only in the intentions. Salerno manages the gained advantage with experience and leads it to the port until the final siren, which sanctions the 60-71 success of the men trained by coach Menduto.
