THE CHRONICLE – After a balanced first period, in the second the red and white girls stretch, playing very well, using effective offensive schemes and excellent solutions with fast ball movement, thanks also to the good overall performance of Benedictines e Happy, who have grinded kilometers and sorted hundreds of footballs. Excellent as usual the test of the sisters Mbengunder the scoreboards, and that of Barbieriunfortunately forced to go out in the final due to an injury, which hopefully does not compromise her presence in the next match.
Upon returning after the rest, the team is dangerously blocked, also because the defense in the opposing zone closes more and more and it becomes very difficult to penetrate the defensive lines; the movement of the ball inside the area does not lead to effective results, but to errors from below, which are not compensated for by attempted shots from outside. The partial 4-12 of the third period makes you tremble and Florence even goes ahead by one. Fortunately, as in the first match, the team regroups and manages to close the match victorious, thanks to the final points of Benedictines e Tina Mbeng.
