The friendly game between Verona and Padova ended on a 2-2 draw. Excellent test for Montagnani’s boys as De MArchi was back in form with 14 points. Barcala and Koshikawa shined too with 17 and 14 points.
“We are very happy with the attitude of the team – said assistant coach Simone Roscini – Even though it was a friendly game, the boys put into practice the work done in the gym during the week against a very strong team”.
