“A victory that has two special dedications – he comments Matteo Gitto -. First of all to our captain Luca Bittarello, who could not be available for this meeting. And then to all those who work behind the scenes to ensure that playing Albaro is always a show. Being able to get into the pool here makes you feel like a professional player and in certain situations this can make a difference. We finally won at home, an important success, won tooth and nail, but I’m happy. We owed it first of all to our fans, who have never let us lack their support and have now been repaid. Now we are already thinking of Catania, a team that has excellent individuality and plays in a very narrow, difficult pool. To tell the truth it is very similar to that of the Foro Italico, where we have always won this year… ”.
