The path of Sir Safety Susa Perugia continues in view of the next official match which will see the Block Devils visit Valsa Group Modena on Sunday in the big match par excellence, first against second in the class, of the fifth return leg of SuperLega.
Technical and physical training in the afternoon for coach Anastasi’s men. The Juventus technical staff is continuing with its work program which is highly focused on technical-tactical aspects and on the development of some phases of the game.
Obviously attention, as we approach the weekend, is also focused on the next opponent, that Modena which is the first pursuer of Perugia in the standings, even if separated by 16 points by virtue of the hitherto immaculate roadmap of Leon and companions. Certainly a high-ranking opponent, always a very electrifying challenge from the Superlega and Raisport cameras that will immortalize the event.
“We know that a difficult match and another battle awaits us on Sunday,” explains Juventus centre-back Roberto Russo. “Modena has considerably raised her level of play, it comes from the defeat in Milan so she will want to make a comeback and at home against us she will certainly be very energetic. For us, it’s another match in which we can focus on our half and try to improve our level of play. On the other side of the net there are great players, such as Bruno, Ngapeth and Stankovic. We will have to try to limit them, we will study them and face the match as best we can, trying to put them in difficulty and return to Perugia with the three points up for grabs”.
29 points, the result of 9 victories and 6 defeats, and therefore second place in the standings for the Valsa Group Modena. After a not easy start (4 defeats in the first 5 days) coach Giani’s team found the right mechanisms and the correct correlations on the pitch, building a subsequent championship record of 8 wins and only 2 defeats, the last of which last Sunday in Milan.
The Rossini-Bruno-Ngapeth axis is always the backbone of Modena with the exuberance of the young Rinaldi (born in 2001 with clear growth in performance this season) and Lagumdzija (born in ’99 and “vice top scorer” of the Superlega with 277 points) to give that extra freshness to the team. The class of the eternal Stankovic, Bossi’s return to base, the many centimeters (211) of the German Krick and the explosion of the product from the Sanguinetti nursery (increasingly at the center of the technical project) then ensure Giani many solutions at the center of the net.
