The Titano San Marino wins 2 gold points against the Bartoli Mechanics MBA
It is a victory of great specific weight, the one obtained byEA Titan with the MBA Bartoli Mechanics for the fifth day of the championship of C Silver. Macina and his companions win 67-63 at the end of a very physical match, almost always commanded. MVP a great Christopher Dini, author of 24 points and important in carrying the Titans forward after the break in the third quarter.
THE CHRONICLE. Barzotti and Pagliaro overturn Gamberini’s initial advantage (2-5), but Fossombrone is just ahead, with the biancazzurri good at coming back with a 7-0 break closed by Francesco Guida’s two free throws (9-5). There is an unstoppable Gamberini in the first quarter (18-13), but the real leitmotif of this Titans start is the defense: hermetic, impossible to overcome. After 16 ‘and 20 ”of play the guests scored 15 points, ours are ahead by 11 and the signs are all promising. Bartoli Mechanics, however, remains a very high level team and returns below with the first points of the play Santi, a not yet 21-year-old player of great quality (30-27 at 20 ‘).
Returning from the locker rooms it is still those who travel who have the best idea. Rosatti and Pagliaro go with the back-to-back of triples and Fossombrone puts his nose ahead on 34-37 at 6’45 ”from the end of the third set. In the most complicated moment Captain Macina responds with a very heavy triple, then here is super Dini, author of 12 points in the fourth and soul of 47-41 at 30 ‘. Frattarelli, in addition to a strong defense, puts in a great triple at the opening of the fourth period, and opens the 11-2 run with which EA Titano flies to 58-45 at -5’30 ”. It seems done but in reality it is not, with Santi scoring 16 points in the fourth and Bartoli Mechanics returning to -5 (62-57) a minute and a half from the end. Macina puts in the triple from the corner for +8, but it’s not over yet. It is not even at 66-59 at -20 “, because Santi puts another bomb and, after Palmieri’s free at -11”, Fossombrone has two free throws (for unsportsmanlike) and a ball on the side. At -5 the theoretical possibilities for a draw are still there, but Barzotti makes 1/2 and in the final possession the guests do not score. The Titans are steel and win 67-63.
