Livorno 8 November 2024 Don Bosco Basketball hosts CUS Genoa
Second consecutive away match for Don Bosco Basketball; this week the team led by Giuseppe Di Manno points the navigator towards Genoa, where they will find one of the most accredited teams in the championship waiting for them. It is no coincidence that the team led by Giovanni Pansolin had started the championship by stringing together a good series of four consecutive victories, before suffering their first defeat of the season, against Gino Landini Lerici, led by former Don Bosco player Gabriele Ricci.
A team, the Ligurian one, to be taken with the classic grains of salt, which has elements of certain importance in its roster, among which the young – 22 years old – Duccio Galluzzi stands out, someone who averages 14.4 points per game and the Gianluca Caversazio is more experienced, scoring 11.4 points per game.
The rossoblu will necessarily have to limit this pair if the rossoblu want to stay in the game until the final siren, hoping that, for once, the sprint finish favors them.
To do this you need the best face and great intensity in defence, as stated by coach Di Manno, who presents the trip to Liguria as follows: “We are going to face a team, CUS Genova, which is very close-knit, with many players who have been playing together for many years, led by the same coach.
The Ligurian team approaches the match fresh from their first defeat of the season, in the derby against Chiavari, after having won, quite easily, the first four matches of the tournament.
We will be facing a team that boasts important players on the roster, such as Caversazio, Galluzzi and Pittaluga. We will face the second consecutive away match, in which we look for continuity of performance and want to continue our growth path, trying to give our rhythm to the match, starting from a great defensive intensity.”
