RECANATI – Victory was needed and victory was for Svethia Recanati who raise their heads again after two consecutive defeats and do so by dominating Olimpia Castello far and wide 85-56. Gialloblu orphans of Andreani and Sabbatini, coach Di Chiara finds Andrea Gurini on his seasonal debut and launches Zomero in the control room. There is balance in the initial stages with the guests holding up the attack thanks to Alberti’s points, but Zomero gives the first jolt with the triple to make it 17-11 but despite this Castello remains in the wake of Grotti’s points with the clock stopped . Palas lights up at the end of the first half with two spectacular dunks from Urbutis (23-14), Castello responds with two points from Alberti and a bomb from D’Ambrosio (25-21 in the 10th minute). The period that decides the match is the second: Gurini dictates the timing in defense and Svethia can run more in the open field, it’s a yellow-blue monologue with a 12-0 break that shifts the inertia entirely towards the Leopardi side (33- 21). Pozzetti, Gurini and Semprini repeatedly score for a gap that grows out of all proportion (42-25), Castel San Pietro can do nothing in the face of the yellow-blue tide that rages thanks to a dominant Semprini in the paint and a cynical Pozzetti from the arc . At halftime the game was already on ice (52-31). After the long break the music does not change, Recanati confirms Zomero’s good impact on the match and in general a bench that takes important and quality minutes. Two points from below by Fontana set the scoreboard at 65-33 with 5’44” left and the match is virtually over. The rest are only useful for statistics: Gurini puts fuel in the engine, Urbutis and Pozzetti take a breather and the unders Marcone and Crucianelli test the parquet. In the 30th minute Svethia + 33 (73-40), the last ten turns of the clock also give space to Ndzie who finishes with 5 points on the scoresheet. It ends 85-56, now on to Wednesday when Attila Porto Recanati will climb the steep hill. Ball at two hours 21, in a PalaCingolani-Pierini which will be fiery to say the least.
