Having archived the home defeat against Ortona with a hint of bitterness, Avimecc Modica returns to the gym to prepare for the Lecce match scheduled for Sunday at 5pm.
Coach Enzo Distefano’s blue-and-whites are aware that they could have done better against Sieco, but the team remained in the match for the first three sets against one of the big teams in the A3 championship and then suffered the blow after losing the match in the photo finish. third half of the game, leaving the green puck to the Abruzzo sextet in the fourth set.
Commenting on the progress of last Saturday’s match and shaking up the whole environment was Stefano Chillemi.
“We played against Ortona which is one of the most accredited teams in our group – explains the captain of Avimecc Modica – but for long stretches we demonstrated that we can fight on equal terms. We were playing at home and we could have won, but unfortunately the third set lost in the photo finish cut our legs short and against a team like Ortona we couldn’t make any mistakes. From today we go back to working in the gym with the aim of bringing home our first victory. As captain, first and foremost – he continues – I must set an example for everyone because, among other things, being from Modica, it is a pride for me to wear this shirt. With Ortona we played well in the first three sets from a mental point of view, in the fourth set we went out of the match and a team that has a lot of experienced people in its squad cannot afford these empty passes. Now – concludes Stefano Chillemi – we reset everything and from today we start training with the right mentality and with the aim of bringing home the first victory, because we have been working and sweating since August 25th to achieve the results we have set ourselves.
