A victory was needed and it came against a top quality opponent like Segrate, away from home. Only Isernia had won there so far but Molfetta did it at the tie-break. Molfetta had already beaten Segrate in the first half of season, making it a special double against a team that was the league leaders just a couple of weeks ago. Man of the match was Nikolay Uchikov who scored 26 points, Mattioli and Giglioli had good games too. On Wednesday, Molfetta will take on Milan in the Italian Cup quarter final, while it will host Atripalda on Sunday.
