Iren Genova Quinto regains the three points: victory at Posillipo
Genoa. The three points are back in the red and white house. On the fifth matchday of Serie A1, Iren Genova Quinto beat Posillipo 6-4 at the Scandone in Naples, above all thanks to the decisive break placed in the fourth half.
Fought match, as predicted on the eve, with the hosts who try to put the arrow in the third fraction, caught up and then overtaken by Gitto and his companions, who rise to six points in the standings.
“A match characterized by tension, with both teams looking for points – comments coach Luca Bittarello -. We have been good at isolating ourselves from the context, from classification, and thinking about our way. This is especially true for the defensive estate, which today was a real strength. The rest was done by a good dose of forward cynicism”.
“Bogliasco arrives at Paganuzzi in Albaro on Saturday – concludes the coach – and we will have to give continuity, above all to performance. A special mention for Francesco Ferrando, born in 2005, who was ready for the away match with a last-minute call-up given that Fracas was in doubt, and also for Andrea himself, who recovered in time, took the train and he joined us in Naples to play”.
