Except for captain Gerosa, cautiously rested and substituted by Groppi, Cantù lined up its best starting six as they took on Reggio Emilia, which was without Kody and Marchiani. It all started with a real tight battle and finished on a 2-2 draw.

“It’s all been very positive – said Massimo Rosa – The reception worked extremely well and we kept making progress. Michele Groppi was on another level compared to Saturday and overall we had a good performance”.
