The Rivierabanca Rimini hosts the Sutor Montegranaro in the 25th day of the championship. To present the challenge the words of Larry Middleton e Francesco Bedetti.
Larry, tomorrow we will face the last in the standings. With just a few days left in the championship, Montegranaro will give everything to improve his position.
“It is a team that arrives at Flaminio with nothing to lose, if they play without too many thoughts they could put us in difficulty. We will have to be good at playing our basketball and stay on track.”
Francesco, we are returning from the match against Giulianova, another team fighting in the lower areas of the table. Do you think we will find a different opponent tomorrow?
“Giulianova is experiencing a particular situation at 360 degrees, she is in a bit of difficulty from all points of view and some players have left: she was a bit disheartened. Montegranaro is charged for me, unfortunately at the beginning of the year there was some changes and she did not manage to win a few games point to point, but more due to a general mistrust than a lack of talent in the roster. There are players like Masciarelli, Crespi, Montanari and Galipò can put us in difficulty, we must not look at ranking because they managed to give almost all the teams a hard time. “
Larry, six days from the end of the regular season, and with all the injuries and problems he has had during the season, at what point is the team’s growth path?
“With all the injuries this year I think the team has a great margin for growth, the potential is still very high but I think we are already at 70/75% of our path. I hope that by recovering all the players we will be able to train in the best way to prepare for a good championship finish. “
Francesco, a very intense final rush is expected for the first four positions between Roseto, us and the two Rieti.
“All the first four have important matches between now and the end of the championship: we have to face NPC Rieti, play again against Ancona and go to Senigallia to my brother Luca, they will all be tough matches. The importance of the matches is now very great, everyone is looking for the best placement even if a possible favorable pairing with the teams in group D may also depend on a matter of luck. In any case we must look only to ourselves, win as many games as possible and get as high as possible, we will evaluate them later. “
Larry, in the past few days you have been a guest of the New Rimini Baseball Softball which will be at the Flaminio tomorrow. You have had the opportunity to speak with a legend like Mike Romano.
“It was a very nice experience, when I was playing here in Rimini in the 90s I went a couple of times to see baseball at the stadium because every now and then I also played there. I was very excited to meet Mike Romano in person, there is a special environment that I was able to discover: I talked to all the guys and they really want to get back on the pitch. I wish you good luck in this project, I invited everyone to the Flaminio so as to have a beautiful image of Rimini united and sometimes if we too managed to go to the baseball stadium it would be a good thing. “
Francesco, from tomorrow’s match the capacity is finally back to 100% in the sports halls.
“For the energy that our fans have always shown us this season it seemed we were already at 100%, Monday night against Giulianova they made us excited. We are very happy with this increase in capacity, the ‘classic’ fan will be more relaxed in the game. come to the match and will be able to decide even closer to Sunday. The glance at the Flaminio, which has always been there anyway, will increase even more. “
